Spring Florals

via

 Pretty sunny days this week and I'm thinking of spring.

I'm making a spring project for JoAnn Fabric and Craft Stores.

I had my choice of styles to choose from -

Nautical

Color of the Year - Radiant Orchid

Geometric 

or 

Spring Florals

After wandering around Jo-Ann for hours. I finally decided on

Spring Florals.

Big surprise there...as seems I'm always drawn to florals. 

I really wanted to just buy something cute accessory and display it but it is a craft challenge.

So I must make something.

I could not decide what....so I finally just bought fabric I like and in the next day or two

I'll make something of it.

I've been browsing Pinterest for inspiration.

The trick with florals is for them not to be too fussy.

Or maybe they are fine..fussy because

 I love that bed above.

Love everything about this photo. 

I wanted to do something with floral paper but couldn't find one that spoke to me.

I thought about sewing up a duvet or a shower curtain.

Maybe a patchwork of florals?

I really don't know what I'm going to make for sure.

The fabric I finally bought I think would make great curtains in the den...but

in order to show them...I'd have to have a new sofa or at least a slip cover.

The den sofa...is very ugly. 

Perhaps I'll have a new one soon.

Things are changing around here.

Or will be changing soon.

Hopefully for the better...perhaps for the worst.

I really don't know yet. 

I'll let you know.

But in the meantime...I'll figure out what to do with my fabric.

I've almost finished the cabinet in the living room. 

It painted up quickly but has taken awhile to distress.

Tomorrow I have the day off and hopefully nothing will come up that will keep me

from waxing it. 

I'm anxious to get it back in place and out of the middle of the room.
