My sewing machine has maintained a constant "whir" of late.  You know the sound the machine makes as it sews yards and yards of ruffled lace unto fabric.    

Oh dear family, it is not my fault that there might be a "speck" of dirt on the floor, or "a load" of laundry that is not clean. Ruffles combined with sewing is very hypnotic. It is a trance-like experience of which, I'm sure, I have no control. I might just need a doctor. 
 

Until I am cured, sewing shall continue to hold my attention. Honestly, I don't mind at all.   

Blessings to all of you!

Spring Ruffles

Too many ruffles? Not this Spring. Ruffles are showing their faces, or layers, everywhere.

March is the month to take away the heavy winter layers of drapes, rugs, and dark slipcovers. It's time to add light textures and colors in creams and whites. The perfect way to do this is with fresh layers of ruffles.

The Home Centric

Too many ruffles on the pillow above? I think not!

I could not resisit the vintage ruffles on this pillow by Home Centric.  It will look great on my couch, and it was a great price.   

If you prefer a more tailored look, the pillow below is perfect. A single band of ruffles is very classy.

How about now?

Use a smaller version of this banquet tablecloth on a side table, entry table, or even a dining room table.  

Ruffles. Need I say more?

Have a blessed day,
