Looky what I did...

I finished sewing my bar stool covers. Yay!!! Let's keep in mind that I did not have a pattern with detailed instructions. I ripped apart(with an itty bitty seam ripper) one of the original white ones that came with it. Then I looked at a second one very closely and wrote my own detailed instructions. It was more difficult then I thought it would be. Nothing I couldn't handle. So here they are. Let's ignore the sewing machine(I'm going to go right into another sewing project), the purse, the mail, the sewing paraphernalia, the dishes in the drainer(do you like my new pizza peel poking out of the drainer?), the iron and towel I used to iron on and the candle that still has no permanent home to call it's own. If you look closely you can see a little pink poking out behind the lamp and rolling pin. THAT'S MY BELOVED MIXER!!!!
We started out with 2 stools but added a third when we found out we were getting Rose.


Don't they look marvelous? (Yes, I'm tooting my own horn...)
My landlord got a new lawnmower and weed whacker for the property. Do you like them? They are 2 months old. The brown one is a boy and the white one is a girl. I'm not sure what their names are. It was going to be Mathew and Charlotte or Ricky and Lucy. I don't know if they settled on the names yet. I was voting for Ricky and Lucy.
