I had this GORGEOUS package show up at my door Saturday. Saturdays seem to be the best post days for me :o) I did a swap with the sweet and fabulous Brooke from April Two Eighty. She is so beautiful and creative and cool and everything I wish I had been at her age! When I grow up I want to be Brooke :o)
I also happened upon something I have wanted/needed for quite some time, a proper sewing table. Mine was a Ethan Allen sofa table that I love but my knees would hit every time I would sew and that is not fun. I was in a local thrift store and was looking at a vintage Kenmore and when I picked it up I saw it was sitting on this table.
The tag said $15 but the lady told me all furniture was 1/2 off!!!!!! I brought her home for $7.50...** HAPPY DANCE** A few modifications and some paint and she will be PERFECT! I am so happy my sewing room on a budget is coming together!!!!
The most exciting news...
I get to play with some of this very very soon!!!! OMG! So pretty!!!!! I cannot wait to share what I am making with this beautiful line :o)

The vintage Kenmore did not come home with me { I know at least a couple of you are wondering}

What a score on that sewing table! Why don't I ever have good thrifting luck like that? : ) Enjoy it!
I agree with lee! great find!
Great table!! And those fabrics from your swap with April look so fun!
My goodness! I'd almost be jealous of that table, except I don't have any room...so instead, I'll be super happy for your find! =) I love thrift stores. =)
Ruby is so pretty!

I am in awe of your room on a budget - we don't really have thrift stores like that here, so Ikea it is for me! Have fun with your new fabric :o)
Super find -- my mother's singer is still in that cabinet sitting in her bedroom. Fabulous fabrics too!
All I'm seeing are the BOLTS of heather Ross in the corner! Lol.
