Didn't Forget

I didn't forget to blog yesterday. We actually started in very early working on prepping for our big project. Jim has been researching (and continues to do so) to resource the best products at the best prices for the project at hand, but yesterday was the first day of the physical side of things. 

The girls needed to be moved. Their pen needed to be disassembled and relocated somewhat out of construction paths, but they needed to be close enough to see us. They are people dogs after all. And, like all construction, what sounds like a simple enough task turns into a much more detailed situation. Here's the new, and very temporary pen, with the space opened up for the construction.

Once we were done for the day (we started pretty early in the morning), cleaned up, and ate a late lunch, I was ready to sew something. Here's the next block in Farm Girl Vintage II...

Mr. Scarecrow

I'm so excited about this new sewing space I'm going to have I can hardly contain myself. Jim understands how passionate I am about my quilting business and my love of long arming that he's willing to do this huge undertaking for me. And yes, we will be doing it all ourselves. Just like we did the barn. The only contractors expected on this are electrical and plumbing. Maybe the HVAC but hopefully the rest we can handle.
