The start of a new project.

The new year makes me want to have everything tidy and clean and organized and nicely decorated. Anyone else crazy like me? To feed my OCD tendencies I am going to do a room by room purging, cleaning, and even redecorate a bit. I have lots of fun craft projects planned! I have estimated this endeavor to take 7-8 weeks. Let's hope I'm right! I am starting this week with our living room.

I know it looks tidy but now, but if you could see the insides of all those drawers…you would shame me. The game plan : De-clutter, and CLEAN. I am making some covers for the throw pillows, and doing a pretty big fireplace makeover. I also want to make two more quilts…they are easy patterns. I am hoping the living room comes easily together this week so I can show you the room again next week all spruced up! Happy Tuesday friends :)

Made with Love Monday #8

I hope you all enjoyed your New Year’s festivities! For me, the new year has started off with a yucky cold {which is why the link party is a little late. I sacked out early last night} Colds are not my favorite so I hope I get over it soon! I’ll be on the couch with my quilt and my laptop until further notice…or at least until I have to pick Carter up at school. Who wants to make me chicken soup?

Thank so much for continuing to link up your projects every week! I so enjoy reading your blogs. My favorite project from last week was the Ironing Board Cover at The Path Less Traveled. Love the fabric choice! The colors are so pretty.

I have a mini ironing board that desperately needs a makeover. I am fairly certain that a beautiful ironing board cover might actually make me want to iron! Can’t wait to try this! Which reminds me, I have to tell you about the new series I am starting! Check back tomorrow to see what I have up my sleeve!

And now for the party! I can’t wait to see what you all link up this week!

{Just a few party guidelines}

  1. To link up, I would first love for you to follow my blog. I like followers. The more the merrier. Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy!

Sew Chatty {behind the scenes}

My first project of 2011. It's going to get lots of use in the coming year! I made it using the pattern in Last Minute Patchwork Gifts. Great book!
