The new look

I have almost finished the redo of the bedroom.  I say almost as I had planned to add some swedish weaving embellishment to the blinds but alas, that yarn is back in Ontario and I have been unable to find it down here.  That likely means it will never actually get done.  So having said that I had promised a couple of people that I would send pictures so here they are. 

This is the old look.  Nothing wrong with it, came with the unit.  I needed a change.

 

I bought a the new duvet cover and two sets of sheets.  I used the second top sheet to make the blinds and toppers

 

This appears a little plain in the picture.  Can you see the coat hooks on either side on the wall?  Well that is filled with robes etc. which fill in the space on the wall.....

 

Since I went with the narrow topper I had enough material to do a topper for the patio door in the AZ room.  We put this door in 3 years ago and I still hadn't gotten around to doing something.  This is just up temporarily.   The end product will be less deep, have a black out lining and they WILL have some swedish weaving embellishment on the front!  (I have already started that, some nice cactii with new yarn that I purchased here.)

Now enough of this, I must get out and walk.  It is a beautiful day, sun shining.  Although when I first got up it was 9c here humidity 76% and 9c humidity 76% back home as well.  What's with that!
