I need a Zambonie.........

If you're familiar with hockey at all.......
you know the Zambonie machine comes out between periods and swipes everything smooth and clean...And looks so F U N while it's doing that!!!
Well--the sewing cave is in major dissarray at the moment. And a Zamboni would be just the thing to send in !
Wishful thinking asside, my DH will be busy this weekend with the Michigan Turn Marshalls and the office is closed till Monday for me......So a 3 day weekend of sewing can begin as soon as I get my **** (self :-) in there and reorganize a bit !
Let's see if I can distract you (and me :-) for a while longer by showing you some beautiful fabric recently purchased on sale...
That's the ticket!! Here's the choices for the next NYB block:
And DD's BFF mentioned Yellow/grey combinations for a baby quilt while visiting, so.........charm squares were on sale and might just be the ticket...

The lily of the valley idea came from Fun With Barb's blog (check out her great blog!!) and the pretty teacup was purchased for our anniversary..(i have started a nice collection after 36 years)
Have a marvelous weekend--we're in for a beauty weatherwise--so enjoy whatever you do.
Me.....I'll be in (and out!) of the cave...Progress reports to follow randomly ;-)

Your sewing room looks like mine does when it is clean! I love the yellow charms, it is one of my favorite colors! I forced my hubby to have a yellow bedroom :)

Lovely fabrics! and your Lily of the valley look so sweet and smell great too.

Love the sewing room....mine NEVER looks that neat and tidy!! The green walls give a wonderful relaxing feel to the Cave! Like the Kaffe fabrics....got 'em on sale...dang I paid full price!! My sister has a lovely coffee cup collection - she'd love a cup of coffee from your cup!! Have a blast on your sewing retreat!!! We are having a Derby party so I doubt much will happen in my Sewingville space tomorrow!

Your sewing room looks great! I'd be embarrassed to show mine...I need a whole fleet of Zamboni's. Love those fabrics you've picked out, enjoy your weekend!

This cracked me up, I knew exactly what this meant, I need one too! (Big hockey fan here.) Loved browsing your blog, your NYB blocks are wonderful. Looks like you have a very full life with your quilting, family, pets, friends and home. I enjoyed my visit here today.
