So we sat down last night to discuss exactly how much garage space we need. Counting the number of vehicles at our house hasn't been something that we've done recently, mostly because I'm disgusted at the amount of room they take up, and the amount of $ we pay to State Farm every year (not to mention the state of Illinois). So here it is. We need to downsize.
First on the chopping block is a Chevy 1-ton pickup. It's old, it's a stick, and I think someone t-boned the side of it. It's definitely not something you'd want for an every day car, but it does great for those trips to Lowes when you just realized that the amount of stuff you just bought won't fit in the tiny Toyota you're driving. If you know someone who's interested let me know. We'll wheel and deal.
Hey, it's a start!
Finishing up the "special project" quilt top. Hopefully I can get it done this weekend and start the quilting. I'm going to do it off-frame with the Juki. I need to SITD, and the frame really doesn't allow for that, plus, it's easy and I can do it in the studio instead of being locked away in the quilting room downstairs. Part of the house remodel I'm envisioning will allow me to have all of my sewing paraphernalia in one room. Woot! It also calls for a room's worth of walk-in closet. I need storage!
Actually, my stash is pretty manageable right now. I'm no longer storing fabric under the bed posing as shoes. It's all either in the quilting room or the studio closet.
Mama K's last tests came back fine, so she's in the clear for another 2 months or so. Yay!
I think the Lolla schedule is now complete. Depends on whether or not there are more last minute additions. Still holding out a little hope for the Chemical Brothers (but not seriously...my luck they'd go up against Girl Talk or something).
