I'm so glad to be back to my blog. We had our family room carpeted yesterday. I cannot explain the hours it took to get that room ready. We have a bookcase in that room that took forever to pack up. I didn't realize we had that many books! Anyways, the carpeting is done and the room looks great. My poor mom felt bad for me so she came over this morning and helped me put everything back in order. It's so nice to have that all done. Let's hope we don't need any other room carpeted for awhile. I don't think I'd be able to get through it again. I did manage to finish this ornament. I have to mail this person's gifts so I wanted to get it done early to get in the mail. I didn't think it needed any trim since that red and white border does such a great job.
I'm almost done this cute little bootie. There are no seams to sew up when finished. I thought it would be done already but that carpeting kept me busy. Anyways, it's a light blue yarn. My daughter's friend had a sweet little boy so I thought I'd make them for her.
I'm hoping I can rest a little today before the cooking starts tomorrow. This time of year is so busy!!
New carpet just in time for the holidays. That is nice! Your ornament is super cute. I agree, no trim needed with that pretty border. Those little booties are going to make a nice gift.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jeanna! I was a little nervous getting new carpeting installed this close to Thanksgiving. I'm so glad it's done. I think I'm still recuperating!
DeleteWhat a beautiful ornament you finished!! I just love it;))) Nice job--
ReplyDeleteThat little bootie is so adorable...We will be deep cleaning tomorrow
before the cooking starts on Thursday...I am a bit nervous about it
all --I haven't done this in years....fingers crossed it all goes off well...
I hope you have a wonderful and restful Thanksgiving after all the carpet upset...hugs, Julierose
Thank you so much! I had no idea that replacing the carpet would be so disruptive. I'm lucky that my mother came to help me this morning or I'd still be putting the books back into the bookcase. I'll be doing a little baking tomorrow but most of the cooking will be taking place Thursday morning. I'm sure your dinner will be great! Enjoy the holiday!
