TTMT #653 – Progress Report (Sewing Room Makeover #2)

Leave a reply

In which I share my progress from the last week of DIY. I’ve been working flat out to get this room done so I can get back to sewing!

The color temperature is all over the place in the video so I put some photos at the end so you can get a better idea of what the wall color actually looks like. I think that’ll sort itself out when I have proper lighting and stuff on the walls.

Be sure to stop by fandominstitches.com tomorrow to see the Design Invitational entries for the Year of Doom Multi-Fandom Bookcase Quilt Along.

Thanks for watching!

Finished Laundry Corner

Leave a reply

Hello, friends! I won’t be sharing a video today as I am driving to pick up my kiddo for Thanksgiving break. I did want to share that I FINALLY have my laundry corner finished up, complete with new (and hooked up!) washer & dryer, recently installed and painted cabinets, some fun decals I found on Amazon, as well as a magnetic lint bin. There’s also a fun laundry-themed rug I didn’t manage to get in the photo. I hope you’re all well and I will see you next week. Not bad for a tiny corner of my garage!

(These are affiliate links, btw, but you are more than welcome to not use them if you choose to buy. ♥)

I hope you are all well and that you have a lovely week.

Stay safe.

TTMT #651 – What a Week!

1 Reply

In which I talk about (mostly) finishing up the garage laundry area project, getting Sarah moved, several unexpected household type issues, and what comes next! BIG thanks to everyone who shared a moving gift with Sarah. It is hugely appreciated! She’s planning to do a show & tell of her sewing room when she’s all set up. I’ll point you to that when it happens.

TTMT #650 – Changes & An Ask

Leave a reply

A big move is coming and so are lots of changes! We’re working on the laundry corner in our garage and have lots of other things lined up after that. I did a little quilting but sewing is on hold for the time being.

I also ask for a small moving gift for my friend. If you are able to help, thank you, if you aren’t no worries, just sending out good thoughts is also appreciated! ♥ My Venmo – @Jennifer-Ofenstein. ofenjen@gmail.com if you prefer PayPal. All gifts are GREATLY appreciated!

I sat down thinking I had almost nothing to share and it turns out I was incorrect, so yay!

The awesome Halloween gnomes from Suzanne came from https://ineedfabric.com/.
