Bytes & Bobbins

I hate moving. Really I do. I feel out of sorts. I’m hoping to back on a posting schedule next week. We’re headed off to the western part of the state[Virignia] on a camping trip on Thursday so I’ll have some pictures to share that don’t involve my tornado stricken apartment.

So we’ve finished painting the new sewing room.  I hope to have some pics up by Friday.  I want to post some of the “before” (without any furniture).  I went with a light blue/green.  Also, the new bedspread came in on Saturday.  I ordered this one from Kohls last week:

This picture makes it look like the   lighter fabric is a pure white.  As I found out when i opened up the box, it’s more of a wheaten color.  A little yellowy.  At first I wasn’t into it.  Then I started thinking about the logistics of a white breadpread… WHAT WAS I THINKING!?!?  Between my husband, our dog, and well, let’s face it, ME…that white would have been beige in no time anyway.  So I’m keeping it.  The blue is really a beautiful hue.  It’s a true midnight blue.  Now all I need is a rug.  I’ve seen a few I like and I thought I’d share them now.  Any thoughts?

I’m pretty excited about it.  It’s a nice little spot, walking distance to resturantes, shops, and a movie theater.  I think Neal and I will fit in perfectly there.  Plus we’ll be able to ride the ferry to work in the morning.  Goodbye morning commute!
