And the "color purple" I too have had the experience of color changes when with room furnishings. Love hearing about your happy turn out with your family. <br /><br />Pic's of books did not load up on my end, thanks for your generous offer. I usually surf the internet and blogs such as yours to learn from. Would you consider sharing some pointers on how you accomplish your beautiful designs, colors and machine quilting? Would love to hear what you are planning for your first lesson too.<br />And Happy Valentine's Day to you and yours.scrappy101https://www.blogger.com/profile/13373385186356083406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259952795997957550.post-1515637993729801752012-02-17T19:03:11.605-06:002012-02-17T19:03:11.605-06:00Hi Lane,

Everyone who wants their "important" stuff done RIGHT NOW can go to Helen Waite.<br /><br />We had pizza on Valentine's Day too. Ours was homemade and I made heart-shaped mini-pizzas. Everyone got to pick what toppings they wanted on theirs and we ate them off the china. It was fun. The kids loved it.<br /><br />Sorry about your carpet. I'm glad you're all keeping your cool. It is great when families work together. Also, I can see how purple your walls look. Too funny.<br /><br />Hang in there.<br /><br />xo -EElizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07980461113595763030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259952795997957550.post-22289198940433570482012-02-16T19:29:45.200-06:002012-02-16T19:29:45.200-06:00Hi Lane

Hopefully "dressing the room" will help otherwise we'll be repainting.your jubilee quilt block look great! inspiring...also all the work you and Rob have done (makes me tired just hearing what you've done in 2 weeks!).<br />I'm not a beginning quilter and have plenty of quilting books so don't need any more projects...the cottage charms looks interesting but!...<br />Elaine<br /> stenbraaten at hotmail.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259952795997957550.post-22388539942284727552012-02-16T18:05:54.941-06:002012-02-16T18:05:54.941-06:00So sorry you are having such a terrible time with ...So sorry you are having such a terrible time with your carpet installation and now the painted walls are not the colour you wanted them to be.

And I empathize about living out of boxes because we're doing it, though for a different reason. Our entire first floor is almost empty. Luckily, though, the furniture stays, it's just everything else that had to go, including all of my sewing supplies supplies. And they'll be gone for the next three months.Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07717835382469677601noreply@blogger.com
