From Bad to Worse ~

The dining room area has gone from bad to worse 😁  I actually cleaned off the table enough the other day for three of us to eat dinner, but that was short lived.

Several people have offered to help me if needed, but I have a hard time accepting help.  I think I should be wonder woman and do it all myself.  One dear friend showed up yesterday and packaged silverplate items.  Thank you Belinda!



A pile of wool even ended up on the floor . . . and is still there.


My original goal was to applique 30 pumpkins on old coverlet pieces.  These are #18 and #19.  When I hit #20, I am D.O.N.E.  I really am sick of them and they take more time than I care to admit!


I'm sure you grammar Nazis will appreciate this one 😛

Thanks so much for stopping by.
Pug hugs 😊

Hey, I thought wool was supposed to be stored on the floor when the shelves get full. WOW! Good for those women!

Haha that is funny. Oh my goodness, you are in the midst of it aren't you? It all looks so awesome. And yet you still find time to blog. You are amazing.
Have a lovely day in spite of all of the work.

Wow! You do have a lot going on here. So much stuff to vend but so much work too.
Maybe you need a little shop addition added to your house on the back. lol.

You have nothing to worry about since you live alone. I can believe the amount of work creating all those pumpkins on coverlets is. I hope that you do great sales this fall.
I have difficulty accepting help too because we are worker bees.

For the record, the women got it right...
Hugs,
Julia

You are running your own little sweat shop there lol.
Is there any hooking going on at all now? I know in this house there hasn't been a loop pulled in a very long time.

Table? What table?? I was too distracted by the amazing display of samplers on your mantel....Show me more!! (Yeah, yeah... AS ("After Sauder") will be fine. I also am not sure what "dinner" is anymore. I made browned butter caramel walnut ice cream for dinner tonight...with homemade caramel. Just waiting for it to freeze a bit harder. This grammar nazi LOVES that meme!! ~Robin~

Dining tables are for crafting. TV trays are for eating. And for extra space when the dining table is full. So .... picnic table?
