I think your garage is awesome - do you have a loft or attic in the garage? Looks like you could have some great storage up there - or a little apartment. Wow, could you send John our way - I have a few things I'd like him to fix/build for me!Vickiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07741431727993692456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-40744663515376716962012-09-30T07:31:28.468-04:002012-09-30T07:31:28.468-04:00John is a very dedicated and hard worker, Vee!

Is there a room on top where that window lies?<br /><br />I love your quilted runner! I have no projects going on right now besides having to keep my house slick and span for RE viewings and I'm still doing de-cluttering in preparation to knowing I will have too much to pack when the big day comes! We've had lots of people come and look at our house and everyone seems to like it, but no offers as yet :( Keep us in your prayers!Pat @ Mille Fiori Favoritihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08922525910685129822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-86711102239018504562012-09-30T00:53:12.228-04:002012-09-30T00:53:12.228-04:00Such a hard worker!!

It's going to look nice when it's done. Rainy and cold here today. Not a nice day so staying inside. We may go to town later on as there is a craft show going on. No projects here. All is on hold until hubs is done work. Another month and he'll be free!! I like your new runner. Ticking is a favourite of mine. Stay cozy inside with your little lights.
