I’ve been so incredibly busy this month, actually this entire Fall, and now with the last travelling and show out of the way, this week has spread out in front of me with possibility! One huge exciting thing: my new couch arrived! This is the last BIG piece in the Kitchen/Family room renovation we did this summer. Changing the color scheme to grey, our old big brown couch was messing up the plan! Here it is, (its the Cameron Apartment size sofa from Crate & Barrel)
(It looks a little brown here, that’s from the Instagram filter). Stirling of course had to approve of the couch:
I finally made the blue linen valences that I had dyed the fabric for this summer:
and now I can’t wait to make a couple of pillows. I literally could not have it sit there without a pillow, so I pulled one from the front room. But it’s not the right color palette so I’ve got to get ON THAT! :-)!
But I really feel that I’ve got to take stock of what I’ve got to do, and realized that I hadn’t done a November Goals post! SO obviously I’ve got to start with that!

I was very realistic in what I could get done, so it’s nice to be able to cross almost everything else. Now, I’ve got to balance sewing stuff for my family room with the special orders I took in the past couple weeks and, oh yes, and Christmas presents I have to make!
