Frankfort Sewing Studio



You have been hearing about the Sewing Studio that we have been working on, so here are some photos. Wayne did some painting for the studio and I have been helping to put it together and also helping with the Open Sew sessions.

Vacationing in Belleville, Michigan






A couple of weeks ago, I visited John and the grand kids while Jessica was out-of-town attending a training class for work. We decided to go on "vacation" to the park since it was a glorious, sunny, warm day (80 degrees)! Here are some photos of the kiddos enjoying our mini-vacation. Later on we went out to eat at Big Boy and Nora found every image of Big Boy there was to find. She kept saying "Here he is", "Here's Big Boy"-- it was a lot of fun!

Revamped Lane Chest




I've been meaning to replace the cushion top on the Lane Chest that my sister-in-law gave to me. It was looking pretty tired, so decided to use fabric that I had around the house. It really turned out nice. The center area was a small woven "rug" that was not practical to use as a rug and the smaller fabric pieces are remnants that I had from covering chair cushions. As you can see, Lucy and Savannah think the re-make is pretty nice!
