Upstairs, Downstairs

 

The chair trick has been working beautifully. Pup gets her chair and I get mine. I don't know why I didn't think of this sooner. Lately I've been able to spend some quality time in both my craft rooms. I used to have to drag everything out into the living area so she could sit with me while I worked. If I didn't she would throw the canine equivalent of a temper tantrum until I gave up and just went and sat on the couch with her. Little dogs. They aren't like anything else in the world in their need for constant attention. 

We go downstairs one day and upstairs the next. Downstairs we are working on the Christmas cards. I've got a lot of coloring and die cutting to do for this year's card.

In the upstairs sewing room I've been back to work on the Colorwash quilt top. These are little 3 inch squares so I'm going to have to make a lot of them before I think about assembling them.

I've also been able to resume punching that set of mug rugs I've been working on. I really like the one I finished. It comes in very handy.

With the teeny tiny punch, I've added a beet to the veggie group. I never realized how important this me time in my putter rooms was until I got it back. It makes the day.
