Room Makeover

I've been helping my friend, Sarah, redo her daughter's bedroom. The idea began in March, but she was not able to focus on it until the school year ended. We found the remaining fabrics this past week, so I broke out the sewing machines and have been up past midnight the past three nights.

It's been fun for me to do some design work. I haven't done much for some time, so it's been refreshing to create and execute. I finished all seven pillows. Although one was altered in design, it turned out great. Isabelle, our hardest client, loved the pillows, so I think she will love the final project.

I hope to do a final reveal in the next couple weeks. The serger I'm using doesn't gather the fabric enough so I will have to recut six sections and resew the netting. Saturday I thought my eyes would bug out as I felt like I was making the longest wedding veil in the world - 220 inches long panels. We'll get it done. We are adjusting and making it better.
