Because tomorrow I get to start putting my sewing room back together! Which includes hooking up my printer, router, all that good stuff. I'll take a photo of the floor then and download it to my computer so that I can show y'all. Sam did some work on my sewing table too. It's a corner computer desk. He cut off the left L and moved it to the right. Well...I'll show it to you some time this weekend.
In the meantime, I made these before I tore the room apart. 
I was confused about something, but still... Pat handed me three tablecloths back in November. Two to cut around the stains for napkins for the catering we do as library friends. I thought she said that the white cloth I cut up was her grandmother's. So, I made the pillows. 
I e-mailed her Monday to tell her that I needed to talk to her and to come to the library. She called and asked, "What have I done?" LOL She brought her daughter for backup. Which turned out good for Mary, because Pat handed one of the little pillows to her. Even though the white fabric in the center of the CQ block and the back of the pillow (with some stains) was NOT her grandmother's tablecloth, she does have something in honor of her grandmother.
The memorial service for Mrs. W was beautiful! The previous night, the family had asked for remembrances. Many were short and sweet, a few were eloquent. When the officiant, a nephew of Mrs. W's finished reading the very last remembrance...an extremely beautiful tribute to Mrs. W, I thought..."End of service. NOTHING else needed." Of course, he continued. My mind wandered as I thought about the large family and numerous friends that this dear lady had. I gazed through the leaded glass window of the chapel. I really didn't hear much of anything else that he said. Nancy's tribute was enough.
OH! As you entered the chapel, a table had been set up with photos. Covering the table was one of Mrs. W's quilts! AND, instead of the usual blanket of flowers on the casket, another of her quilts was spread. Much, MUCH better!
I was so tired when I got home after working the library all day. But I made a bee-line to my sewing room. (I took photos the previous day, but they had disappeared off the camera card. totododo-totododo They showed the floor laid but without the quarter-round.)
This is what I saw! 
Quarter-round installed!! Sam had also filled the tiny nail holes. We - probably he since I'm working all week - will prime, then paint the quarter-round to match the baseboards. That's why the paper is there...to protect the floor from the primer and paint.
Getting closer to moving back in!
BFF - since fifth grade - Earlene's mother died early Sunday morning. Mrs. W was such a sweet lady and at age 88 or so still lived alone. Until... She still went DANCING! Her ride was there to pick her up. Just as she got to the car, she fell, hit the concrete and broke her arm. To the hospital...to the nursing home for rehab. And should I mention that at her age, the rehab was minimum...if next to nothing. She never returned home. Her outlook and over all health deteriorated.
BFF is the librarian at our small public library. I am her sub. So after working all day yesterday (Monday), I arrive home, and see carpet and padding rolled up in the garage! The table saw is there too. I stuck my head in my sewing room. This is what I saw! 
When Sam picked me up for lunch, I asked what he'd been doing. "Piddling." In your shop? "No. Didn't want to turn the heat on up there just to 'piddle' around."
I'm almost certain he is spending the day "piddling" around again. YIPPEE!!
Got a lot more stuff to store and put away. Sam cut the left L off the corner desk and attached it on the right...and...made a drop-deck for my sewing machine! 
He saved the cutout and fixed it so that it would drop back in the hole for when I add the embroidery attachment. I am soooo excited!
