    The last WH I made was a very simple star so I am really going to have to step it up for this one.

    One thing I am doing this summer is painting the upstairs rooms, those are all the ones above my studio!

    The two spare BRs are the same color, one a guest room and the other for my DHs workout equipment.

    Here is the guest room and notice the old bolster pillow. I am turning it into a WH for over over the little Victorian bed that I found at a barn sale. It was behind a lot of old wood and planks, not really out for sale. I saw just the edge of it and if you don't ask.......

    The wonderful old guy pulled it out for me to inspect and said he would take $15.00 for it. SOLD! My entire house is furnished this way. The little heart chair was $25.00 and the Victorian vanity belonged to my DHs aunt. Oh, back to the WH. It has little wool dancing bunnies and over their heads it says
    "Dream a Little Dream". I made it years ago and will re-purpose it. My very own dream room!

    I have to go sew now and search for my next WH.
    peace

    Signing up is great for letting us know who is playing. But remember you have to have a wall hanging done and be on the ready to mail list to get an address. So if you sign up and find you can't get done on time no harm done. You can use it for the next swap. This is not a partner swap.

    There is no theme. Anything you want to make is fine. I think I said larger than a mugrug and smaller than a lap quilt! Otherwise no limits. nobody to please but your self! Make whatever you want to make!

    I just love that Ube! That will be so cute as a wall hanging and much better seen than as a bolster. I grew up around antique dealers and love stuff like this

    everybody. I have my pattern ready to go. Now I can take my time choosing the materials, always the hardest & most time consuming part of any quilt for me. This one will be a Christmas theme, but not a traditional red & green. Picture birds & fruit.

    I was on a 2 week lay off from work and I got the 2 bedrooms and all the trim painted. Then cleaned out three closets and took many items to a consignment store that raises money for abused women. Most still had price tags on them.

    I found a home for this great vintage romper/ swim suit from the late 50s. It has been in my possession for a long time. I had no reason to keep it when other people collect and use vintage cloths. Isn't it cool. The original price tag from Lit Brothers is marked $11.00.

    The last thing I did this week was to work on the Dancing Bunnies WH for over the bed. I am adding penny rounds to the bottom edge to give it an older feel to fit in the room. I will post a picture a bit later in the construction.

    Well I am back to work Monday and I can't say I am looking forward to it.
    Have some fun and take care every one.
    peace

    Wow Ube, you really were productive during your time off! Cute romper, although I can't see myself in one!! You are ahead on me in having your WH pattern set to go. I am still thinking.

    Ube quilting, that swim cap sure brings back some memories. I remember when I was a little girl wearing one of those, and I thought it was something else. lol..
