Poppy Power!!.....

Poppy Madness cheers up sewing room-den-office. Finally finished with the curtains and valance today. I hope this will being on an attack of Spring weather. After all, we did turn the clocks forward two nights ago, so shouldn't Spring be on the way forthwith? We do have a winter storm warning on our forecast from this week, but i am hoping that is going to be at least one of the last storms of the season. We have had enough. I can't get enough yellow in my life at the moment. I suppose I could buy a Janome Magnolia to get some yellow machine goodness, eh? But I would rather have pink or pinkish-red in a machine next time I buy one. Next up are new covers for several of the machines in the sewing room. I plan on three - one for the big Janome, one for the Janome 115110, and one for my Pfaff. All from double sided quilted fabric. They are not hard to make, so reporting on that next time.

Now that's real decorating: buying a sewing machine by its color. LOL

I knew that those would brighten up a room. Nice.

Very cute and cheerful! And now you've got me wondering what kind of machine you've got your eye on! I know Janome has a little red on the front of some of their machines....I guess I'll have to pay attention when I see ads for SMs. Unless you want to tell us, of course!

These poppies remind me of a Vera print. They certainly will brighten a greay day. So pretty!

Love this bright cheery yellow print. It reminds me of a Vera print. They will certainly cheer up a gray day! I love them.

We still have 2-3 feet of standing snow out that window.....so your comment is most welcome! It sure is more cheery to look out between yellow poppy curtains! :)
