Allergy season is here

I am suffering this year. 
All the rain we have had must have created monster ragweed plants. I never feel this bad in the fall.  I'm hoping the allergy shot and the new steroid spray do their thing. Quickly.  
So, when I'm not lying down with a throbbing headache I'm trying to get stuff done.
I spent part of yesterday screwing around with the damn computer trying to print my pattern layout pieces at 400%. 
(I HATE getting on the computer at home since I sit in front of one all week at work)
With the advice of my son we finally figured it out and agreed, I need a new computer.


I'm looking forward to using my new toy.  A starch brush!!


Yep.  I just drop my quilts on the floor when they are in the works. The floor is clean. 
It's funny when it's done everyone is so careful with it and when displaying it they dont want it to touch the floor.  
My quilts are very familiar with the floor. (I know they just dont want it to get dirty but it is still humorous to me.)


I need a bigger room.
Actually a couple of rooms.
Here is my teeny sewing table.


Here is my work bench.
It is meant for my stained glass.


Here is my grinder and saw station.
Hard to see under the piles of everything else.


My cutting table which is in front of my glass.  My wool is crammed up above the glass.
I need more space!


I'm happy I found an aspen leaf that is just the right size for the corners of the quilt. Those were a quick applique project.


Ta-da!  Ready for basting, quilting and binding.  
I plan to quilt it myself on my Bernina in a random leaf pattern. Maybe if I do it in different types of leaves it won't matter if they aren't all the same size???  Not sure. Will have to sketch something out.
