Valentines' Day Project

I started the day with a little sewing while Bill was getting ready........I finished the quilt of Mom's on the frame and loaded up a little one for Mille and finished it!
A nice all over meander if just right for this one using variegated purple thread.
Then we tackled a big job today-I started out myself but ended up needing some muscle.
And things really moved along when Bill joined the team........
We have 3/4 of the room finished....we have to enclose the area around the air handler before I can lay the rest but I am thrilled with our progress today!
Isn't the wood much nicer than the cement!!!  Now I am off to my ibuprofen dose again-I am sore everywhere.  (This room is going to have  a desk for Bill and some exercise equipment.  It also doubles as a guest room when we overflow the bedrooms!)

    Lovely! I love wood floors and dream of having them all through my house. Don't you just love that shine?

    Hey that meander looks vaguely familiar! We are about three quarters of the way through the first quilt on the frame but the top thread keeps skipping stitches - do you think we have a needle problem?
