These are some new curtains I made for my bedroom this past spring. I made them in memory of my grandmother. She passed away about 22 years ago. We had gone shopping one day not long before she had passed and helped me pick out this fabric. I was not sure at the time if I liked it. So away it went into a box just for me to discover years later. I guess you could call it vintage fabric. Every time I look at them I think of that wonderful shopping day with her, My Mom, and aunt.

I get up every morning determined to both change the world and have one hell of a good time. Sometimes this makes planning my day difficult.

Oh I think they are really pretty, Grandma would love them. Such a cozy print. Now if you would come to my house and make some for my bedroom I would be very happy.
