One thing leads to another



A couple of weeks ago we replaced an old worn out couch with a new reclining one with a love seat to match. This led to a domino effect of consequences and work to be done. First we had to get the furniture in the house which was no easy task. Then we had to get rid of the old couch which we gave away. Then we moved all the chairs from the room to make room for the love seat.

By then I realized the curtains didn't match anymore, or the pillows… thus leading to my latest craft project. It is not especially talented or fancy but I made some new curtains which are a simple gathered style from a pretty paisley design. I found some cut fabric left over from a previous quilt and made some matching pillows. Some left over curtain fabric was used for the back of the pillows. I think the end result adds a lot to the look of the room and I was glad that I actually got the project done since I had put it away for awhile thinking I would like to do that “someday”.
