NEW DISPLAY AREA

 I prepared a new display area in my hallway outside my apt. door.

This gives me more room to showcase my projects.

The long view.  As you can see I make good use of the utility carts and the walker.

The long board at the far end.

I like this new arrangement.  I can showcase more of my wall hangings with this method. 
Onward and upward.

This is my new pressing corner behind my sewing machine.  It makes it so much easier and handier to press the small things. The night light in the extension outlet lets me know if and when my iron is on.  I can just turn Off the switch at the outlet and when I see the light is out, I know my iron is off.  Safer method, I think.

Stay safe my friends.  Til next time....
wishing you all good days!

Casper the Friendly Ghost is finished.

 I finally finished my WH of Casper the Friendly Ghost.

Here he is, my darling Casper.  He measures 12 1/2 by 14 3/4 inches.  I didn't want to add anything specific to make one think of Halloween since I want to use Casper all thru the seasons.

Now I have a decision to make.  What to finish next.

This is my Wall of WIPs which I arranged after all my shifting and tossing and rearranging this month.  I wanted a better place to work my sewing projects.
What to do next?  The mini-quilt has been waiting for about 3 years to get done.  Then there is the Gnome project in Xmas fabrics.  

This little guy is Oscar, who I have the pleasure of dog-sitting now and then when his person has Physical Therapy or Doctor Appointments.  
I also want to take some sketches of him and maybe do a Wall Hanging of the little guy.  He's so adorable.


I also adore the blue Smurfs so I worked a sketch while watching a cartoon on TV the other day.  I need to think about working him into a Wall Hanging.

How about Snoopy sitting in a chair......

Or Snoopy taking his ease in a hammock?
I have other Snoopy sketches, too.
It's decisions like these that make me smile.
I am not sure what will be next, but you can be sure I am back at my sewing machine so something will be under the presser-foot soon.
Wishing all a good day.
