Busy, Busy Saturday

The pictured room, the guest room aka Cheryl's room is ready to be occupied by Cheryl. And, if all goes as scheduled, Cheryl will be here next week at this time.  Today, I washed, dried and remade the bed with fresh linens.  I fluffed pillows, dusted, and vacuumed.  Today I did what I guess you could call "fussy dusting." I actually moved items and dusted under and around them…most dusting sessions, I just Swiffer around objects on table.  The hardest table to dust isn't in this photo…but it takes a bit of doing to get things back the way they were!   I started cleaning the hall bathroom…washed and dried and rehung the towels.  The towels hadn't been used since they were washed last…but they hadn’t been hanging there for some time…so they needed freshening.  

A little more about this room.  The quilt at the foot of the bed was made by my grandmother.  And, you see a couple of my tiny efforts at quilting…the wall hanging and the large pillow in front of the headboard.  This is the type of quilting that I like to do. I’m not much on making large bed-size quilts.  I enjoy making quilted pictures like these.  The baby doll that you see in the corner was one of my Aunt Lois' dolls from her doll collection.  Aunt Lois made the christening dress that she is wearing and she is sitting in my grandfather's high chair.  

I’m through with my getting-ready efforts for tonight.  I'm two initials and four numbers away from finishing the sampler I’m working on.  I hope to finish that tonight and maybe watch a little TV and put my feet up.

To be continued! Be safe! Be well! Be cautious!
