My sewing room is in the basement aka 'the dungeon' and I see a white brick wall. Hey, at least the previous owners painted the brick! But don't feel too bad for me because I swing around in my chair and look right at the design flannel and cozy up to the heater :).
On my flannel is my take on Helen's Disappearing 9 Patch. I was trying to use up some of my florals and was thinking leaves and dirt walking path but think I kinda missed the mark! :) but as Pam would say...IIWII (it is what it is...my new favorite saying, by the way!) I was trying to decide if I should quilt it with a leaf motif or a floral? What do you think?
A sad day here in 'the dungeon'...I used the last of the batting :(It was 30 yards of 120" Hobbs 80/20. Sad to say, that the few places I checked won't ship the 120" any more because of the high cost and drat, wouldn't you know, I didn't save any out for my queen quilt :( Guess the 108" will have to do...
On a happier note, nothing says 'SPRING' to me like a new pair of shoes! These are my new shoes. Everyone got new shoes but no one would let me take a picture in their shoes for worry that their feet would show up on the blog! They know me sooo well. *g*

nice shoes! I love IIWII do you say the abbreviation? eyewhy? ;-)
It's the weather for new shoes!! And what is it with families avoiding the camera? Are they THAT suspicious?? And a person who sews in the basement is called a troglodyte. At least--that is what my friends called me. (Makes me think of the troll that lived under the bridge) But Pat is WAAAY too nice to be a troll!! I know--she can be an elf! Or a fairy!
I am inspired from looking at your D9P quilt to make one of my own. I think I am going to use my collection of Hallowee fabrics with black where you have the green and orange where you have the smaller brown squares. What do you think?
