I treated the dining room windows to some fabric that I hope to turn into curtains. Only having made curtains once before and failing to match up the repeat pattern I am cautious to cut into this fabric.
I am feeling indulgent because this fabric is not thrifted or from a bargain bucket or vintage supplies. It is brand new!!! I know there is a big 'make do and mend' campaign on at the moment but to be honest I love things that are new and not re-purposed or pre-loved, although I do admire the ingenuity of people that can turn a sows ear into a silk purse! Saying that, I am aware there isn't always the funds to buy brand new but doesn't it feel good to indulge once in a while?
Well November is nearly over. My husband is on the mend and returned to work. I managed to learn 10 Latin words, phrases and sayings every day for 30 days. I doubt that I will remember much of it but it was a useful distraction away from some truly horrible days. I have not yet decided on my 30 day challenge for December. Best get to it!
