Projects

At last, I got around to putting this Marimekko fabric on stretchers. It's been languishing in the trunk of my car for nearly a year, until I could find stretchers long enough--it's a single repeat of 50" x 90"! I love this print, it reminds me of the birch trees in Door County and the vibrant colors cheer me up without being garish. Of course, it did none of these things behind the bottle of window washer fluid. Now, it looks great in the spare room (come November to be known as "Mom's Room"), and is inspiring me to get moving on my other home improvement projects. The spare room is still a mess--the bookshelves are all wrong, and it needs a rug and a twin bed, and a side chair, and shades, and....but I'm going to tackle my own bedroom first.
