One Monthly Goal :: June 2018


So last month, this happened.


I grimaced my way to finishing my May One Monthly Goal, but I am definitely paying for it.  Doctor says that I should be good as new in a few weeks, but I'm going to make it easy on myself just in case I don't have many sewing days.

Since I haven't been able to sew, I am very glad that I made the decision last month to buy new patio furniture. I've had my eye on these sets for 3 summers, but finally came to the conclusion that I wasn't going to find anything I like better. 



The daybed is the Newport Circular Sun Bed by TK Classics (in Aruba). I was pleasantly surprised to see that the bed came with two sets of cushions, both the Aruba turquoise I ordered, plus a bonus set in beige. 

The dining table is part of the Modway Convene Collection in Turquoise. Both sets seem to sell out quickly (on Amazon, at least). The dining set is only available in Beige as of this writing.

We've only had the furniture for a few weeks, but I think we've already spent more time on our back porch that we have most summers! 



In keeping with the summer theme, my One Monthly Goal for June is to make some coordinating pillows for the day bed.  Maybe, if I'm really feeling ambitious, I'll make a pouf, too.

I need to shop in person, but I'm thinking something like this Solarium Olympica Lagoon from Joann.
