Sewing Saturday
This weekend I'm making curtains. Hopefully, that is... if I can figure out how to work my mother's Sears Kenmore sewing machine. So far I'm not having luck. But, I did buy this beautiful fabric...
... that looks something like this... and I plan to use it to make a faux-headboard for my bedroom. The two windows in the room provide great light, but also prevent me from positioning the bed anywhere that isn't in front of a door or window. So, I'm going to make a giant curtain to do double duty - cover one of the windows and serve as a sort of headboard. I think it will look great once I'm done. I just have to figure out how to get the darn machine threaded and working. :)
I hope you have a wonderfully relaxing weekend!
