Roman Shades Done!

Yes I've finally finished that task...what a monkey on my back it was. I think it was because I don't mass produce the same think & it was like 'Groundhog Day' over & over. I worked a lot of that colour too, it's the same check as the kitchen drapes. It was worth it though, now when I look into the sun room it was as I visualized.

 Light & airy,  perfect for those hot August days fast approaching.

 Elizabeth was over cutting out her wee red quilt pattern so I played on making a bolster pillow from the leftover greatroom curtains. It was meant to be, the scrap for the width was perfect & I used a bread & butter plate for the circle used at the end of the pillow & a 16" zipper was just right. I love it when things fit just right!

If you can dream it - you can do it.

Epcot motto.

 I promised my granddaughters that we would make friendship bracelets on their visit to the east coast. Well I had to teach myself first, it wasn't too bad. I used Mustang colours for mine, I think they'll have fun doing it.

 I took some time to make some gluten free yummies for my son Don  that's arriving with the family this Thursday, he too has a gluten sensitivity. Banana bread always tastes better after a few days.

I also made him date squares with the gluten free oatmeal & flour. I've been sampling & it tastes so good with a cup of tea. :)
I've lost 14 pounds now since I've come east, something tells me it's going to be a challenge with company & all the entertaining that's going to go on next week with Don, Melissa, & the kids & Bill coming too! Eat, drink & be merry...a happy time of getting together.
I'll have to use my video package that I got at the yard sale on the weekend, it's Leslie Simone's Walk Yourself Slim - 5 mile walk. I like walking. :) I like food. ;0 & I love my family. Let the festivities begin! I'll just walk on...later.
