How do you like my mess...

Good Morning all.  I was informed that I have not blogged for 2 days, the penalty being I have to list 10 thankfuls....so I will do that first.

-  Joan brought in 3 pieces of ironstone for my on Saturday to the shop, they are beautiful of course, thank you Joan!  We have our own personal shopper.
-  Football, I just love it, even though the Steelers didn't win : ( , but now all the games are over til fall.
-  Bubble baths, they are so relaxing.
-  Magazines, I have a problem with magazines, I can never wait til the next issue comes out...
-  I am thankful for the warmish weather we are having today, and I actually see a little sun.
-  I am also thankful because it is February, which means it will soon be March, then April, and warmer each day...
-  I am thankful I have a sewing room to work in, although it is a mess as you will soon see...
ok I know its only 7 thankfuls, but thats the best I can do this morning!

Now, I have been working on a new project, but I can't show it until it's finished, because it is a gift to someone I am very thankful for (there's number 8).  But I did want to show part of my sewing room, which is an absolute disaster right now!  So I'm only showing the part that is clean!
