I had the funnest day today! Pam Matthews (from Del Ray Fabrics), Cindy Luby, and Katie Blakesly came by to help me sew for Market. Lily's bedroom has already been a huge undertaking. I have been laying awake at night for weeks planning and replanning. I've been painting furniture, buying stuff on Craigslist, and testing my skills at Home Depot. And now, thanks to these SWEET ladies, it is finally coming together!
Project #1--the chair. I found this at Ikea in the As Is section. It had a hole in the front, but since I was going to cover it, that was no biggy. It was like 50% off. Woo hoo! Cindy has already jumped in and just sent me this pic:
Oh boy. Oh boy. Just the coushion to go. I'd better get to work on that foot stool.













Wow! I can't believe you only have a few days to get this together. It looks amazing!
