related furniture.....

A couple weeks ago Karen and I were discussing how we were both on the lookout for new furniture for our living rooms.
She wanted a standard sofa and I wanted a sectional.
A week or so ago I received a text from Karen, she was on her way home from a mini vacation up in the twin cities..."have you seen the Slumberland ad?"
No I hadn't.OMG....there on the cover was my sectional!
I showed tractor joe right away. "look! here is the sectional we want!"

(I should really say "I" here, he wasn't thinking about such things at all....and, of course, wanted to know what was wrong with the old one he was stretched out on.
Well for one thing we can update the basement furniture....replace the 70's couch down there with a 90's one....and when he is laying on a new sectional, I would still have a comfortable place to sit!)
Several texts later....(we were sidetracked with me watching the radar for storms Karen was going to be driving into)....she said had bought the sofa and love seat....and had sat on the sectional at the store. She thought this was the sectional I would want!

A few days later we did end up buying the sectional! Now both Karen and I are waiting for our related furniture to be delivered. Right now it looks like next Tuesday will be the big day!!

I am going to start the quilt-a-long, but can't decide what fabrics to use. Oh well... I'll think about it a few days!
