Rufus was in total agreement so no exercise for me.....Then I decided to have a laundry binge. Bed stripped, towels changed every scrap of laundry collected and washing machine and tumble drier on overtime. That meant lots of running up and down stairs as my drier is in the bathroom, it was the only place it would fit. The utility room has my chest freezer in and there is no way I was putting that in the bathroom.
All the curtains are made and hung, here is the fabric. It isn't really kitchen styled but it is pretty enough and it is out of deep stash.
Whilst I had the camera out I thought that you might like to see my "peg" board.
There needs to be another 2 or 3 hooks but they need picking up from Wilkinsons the next time I am near one. I need to have a tidy up with the threads as the reels are all over the show, I usually keep them in colour groups. You can see the scissor keeper that the lovely Chrissie made for me, it will be moving to the board once I get my hooks.
One last Christmas gift, Francesca found this and it was in my stocking. It is perfect and the SO had it on the door in no time.
The rest of my day will include some ironing, all that laundry!, and a selective tidy round the sewing room. I have the lining for my dress to iron as well, then there will be pattern pinning and cutting out. I do not expect to do any sewing on it today, but tomorrow afternoon is looking good.
Dinner tonight is the Barlotto, all the veg has been prepped (the SO has excellent knife skills) the barley is weighed out and veg stock is ready to go. I have defrosted some Edamame beans for extra protein but there is a small piece of St Agur cheese in the fridge that may just go in to bolster the creaminess. Oh and a little Stilton may well get crumbled onto the top.
On that note, with a little background noise of rumblies in the tumblies I am off to crack on with that ironing.

What a lovely sign.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
I was so pleased when I unwrapped it.
DeleteSt. Agur is my absolute favourite cheese...together with all my other favourites (there's not really a cheese I don't like. Oh, other than mild Cheddar, which has no taste). The Sewing Sanctuary door hanger is fab.
ReplyDeleteI am with you all the way on cheese although Stinking Bishop takes a bit of getting used to.
Delete'Rumblies in the Tumblies' made me LOL. Thanks for the chuckle.

I have always been a Pooh fan, I had a little Pooh back pack for years and then one of my friends grand daughter fell in love with it.
DeleteLoved your peg board and the door sign is a delight.
ReplyDeleteI am as pleased as punch with them, I picked up the extra hooks today.
DeleteI just looked up berlotto and it's sounds delicious. Your sewing paraphernalia looks very organised.
ReplyDeleteSo much better now that is all in reach and sight. I am making myself hang things back after each use, rather than put them down. I hope that it will soon become a habit.
DeleteYour peg board is brilliant, you should always know where your cutting equipment is now. It's such a good idea.
ReplyDeleteIt is so much easier now, no more losing things under a layer of fabric.
DeleteOoooh I do like the fabric you are using in the kitchen....so pretty.
ReplyDeleteHugs-x-
It is bright and cheerful, I may make another set in summery colours.
DeleteLove your Sewing Sanctuary sign and the peg board - Perfect!!
