I didn't get any other shots of the before or even the during but I think the afters more than make up for that. This is by far the best bit of the re-do - the Farmer's Wife quilt up on the wall. Oh my goodness, I just fell in love with it all over again. Fab-U-Lous!
Here's another shot of it with Debbie lolloping about on the couch. Another of my favourite bits is the bookcase just next to the couch where all my cookery books are. We brought the bookcase through from the dining room. I *love* it!
This shot shows the wall where the 2 matching units of book shelves and drawers are with the telly in between. Wonderful!
Molly was exhausted after all her hard work! She wasn't the only one! :o)
Looking good! I like seeing a room decorated with books ;-)
ReplyDeleteAre you having a rest tomorrow? Enjoy the room!
We did have a rest, Jem - we needed it after all that shifting! :oD
DeleteThat looks great and I know what a pain it is to move books, because that is my downfall in life. We have far too many. The quilt looks lovely on that wall and you probably noticed I'm in the mood for changing quilts too. Molly only just fits on that stool!! Is it a piano stool? I'd like to change my loungeroom, but don't know where to start.
ReplyDeleteIt is a piano stool. She is too big for it but try telling her that! LOL
DeleteYour quilt looks beautiful on the wall. Doesn't it make a room feel so much better when you just have a move around. Hope you've all recovered.

The quilt on the wall is by far the best thing in the room now. I sit and stare at it for ages and see something different every time. I LOVE it! :o)
DeleteIt can make a room look so different when the furniture has been moved. I love to see lots of bookcases filled with books. I think the finishing touch is your wonderful Farmer's Wife quilt, it's gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jo. I always think you can tell a lot about a person by their bookcases. Mine would tell you that I love to cook/bake and sew - and read! :oD
DeleteAnd another thing.... you got me moving my furniture round! When I bump my toes in the night, can I blame you? ;)
ReplyDeleteWoops! Sorry about that, Jem! :oD
DeleteThe quilt looks super up on the wall! I'm sitting here loooking at the furniture wondering if I could move it ......
ReplyDeleteThanks, Anne. It looks like I might have started a furniture moving craze! LOL
DeleteIt looks wonderful Anne! I LOVE the quilt with your bright and happy crochet below it -- they all tie in so wonderfully together!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Anna. I am chuffed to bits at how fab it all looks together! :o)
DeleteThe quilt is a perfect showcase piece. It looks gorgeous hung over the couch. I love the room it has so many homey things I feel as if I could move right in. ;) Your crown moulding is beautiful too. I am glad you were able to accomplish what you wanted and had some help to move it all around.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jan. Our house was built in the 1930s and still has quite a few of its original features like the mouldings around the ceilings. :o)
