Master Bedroom Redo

After four solid days of stitching up this brand new look for a client, I am "bug eyed and not so bushy tailed".  I'm pooped.  Worn out.  Beat.  I may never sew again...

Not really.  'Cuz, I've been sewing all my life.  

My first sewing machine, a pink Sew Big, was a child sized machine that you cranked by hand.  That was the third grade.  By the fourth grade I had graduated to a "real" secondhand Kenmore.  By the sixth, I had given up on teaching my mom to sew (she'd have to wake me up in the middle of the night to thread the machine for her) and was making my own clothes.  Whenever I wasn't painting, I was sewing.  I was flying high...I was born to sew. 

 So when a client needed a master makeover and I needed a project for the CWTS finale, I jumped at the chance.  

After shopping for fabric and accessories, it was time to get down to business.  My local quilt and fabric shop, the fabulous Lasting Creations, quilted the silk coverlet for me in a rush.  I can't thank them enough.  It's gorgeous -- pictures do not do it justice.

  I wanted to cover the round table in the unexpected and I think I got my wish.  It's big, and stands up nicely to the canopy.  

That's a down foot warmer at the foot of the bed.  Cool, huh?

Lovin' the little details... 

So, after four looooooong days (and nights) I'm happy to say I'm pleased with the results and so is my client. 

I've got more to do in this room so stay tuned...
