I too am collecting to do the quilt I have gotten quite a bit of In the Pink fabric plus a few others bits and pieces as well ... but I love the look of yours .... I have seen a few block around the place done in different fabrics and they all look good. Good luck with the renos ... the floor boards will look fantastic!! We did the same in the kitchen and dine area ... very dusty and inconvenient for a while especially when you dont use a professional (ie 1 very unhandy husband) but it all sorted (kind of) in the end ... looks good to the untrained eye!!

Ooohh ... your floor boards look like they'll come up a treat! First thing we did when we bought, before moving in, was to rip up the icky carpet and lino and sand and oil the floors - love the look, so warm! Good luck coping with the dust, though!! Bear Hugs!

We had our kitchen lino pulled up a couple of years back and had the floorboards sanded and stained and they have come up beautifully. Makes a real difference to the room. When our son bought his house every room had old carpet so we bravely pulled it all up and underneath was jarrah floorboards and fortunately in very good condition. He had them sanded stained and they look great. The kitchen had 7 layers of lino and board to pull up!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6953693419316837046.post-326068232257333422009-03-15T14:47:00.000+10:302009-03-15T14:47:00.000+10:30Love your BOF Block...this will be a later project...Love your BOF Block...this will be a later project for Me...Have Fun with the Floor Boards they should come up a Treat...<BR/>cheersAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00606889686676670393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6953693419316837046.post-57076839250116706272009-03-15T08:35:00.000+10:302009-03-15T08:35:00.000+10:30Your floor is going to look fantastic.

Sadly our house would only have subflooring beneath our carpets and our house has many square feet so such a change is not in our budget at this time. So the carpets will remain. I do like their warmth and we do wear house slippers instead of shoes indoors to help out with cleanliness. Good luck with getting yours re-done, it sounds like a good project.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
