Pictures

I have a bunch of pictures to share so it's time for a picture post...

So we did over our guest room and this is the "before" shot...

And this...

...is the "after".

We painted this desk white and it's now my sewing desk. It still needs new drawer pulls, but I love it! 

Here's my cutting table. I used to sew on it too, but now it's strictly for cutting. I love having so much space!

The curtains I made using my scraps. Some of you may recognize some of the fabric from purses and aprons I may have made you!

Today we took a quick trip to Washington, D.C. because our friends at CatholicTV invited us to the huge cable trade show going on there...

It was very cool and we could have spent hours there. Unfortunately we were only able to race around it quickly, picking up some free stuff (EWTN gave out nice rosaries and San Damiano crosses), and looking for celebrities (we only really saw people we didn't really know, like someone from Top Chef and some lower-level cable news people...except we did see Richard Petty) before Ryan had to get back for work.

Here I am with Bonnie from CatholicTV, who was nice enough to think of us and send us complimentary tickets, and Father Robert Reed. Father Reed co-hosts the show I was interviewed on,"This Is The Day." 

We had planned on actually stopping to see the cherry blossoms since this is their peak time, but we had too much fun at the cable show and just had to take these pictures from the car:

I would've been upset to not have been able to see them close-up, but it was completely overcast, so it wasn't exactly a beautiful day for picture taking. I guess we'll have to come back next year!
