It's not right




I've been working on the sunshine room today. That bookcase was not as easy as my playroom one. 8>( And I can NOT get the top to stay attached so I'm waiting for 'he who knows'! The fit is perfect though.


I got all my oranges washed and ironed up. I hope there is enough variety and enough period.


I made the valence. I cut some of the width off as I thought it shouldn't be too ruffly. That may have been a mistake. But it still doesn't look like I have the proportions right. I need to sleep on it I think.


Then the camera wasn't making my pictures light enough. I got out the manual. Now they are not right as well. Need to read the manual before I go to sleep! lol


Last evening for the Common Threads Quilt Group. We need to talk about next year's hopes and dreams. That'll be better to sleep on!

Definitely sunny and cheery. I like the valance as it is not too frilly. Happy decorating...

I like the yellow. I like a straight valence. I made one once for my daughter and used a real stiff interfacing. It looked like a cornice but was a valence, turned out great.
