Just a Sewing

First, I want to give some news that I finally have a diagnosis....Tachycardia.  Here is the definition if some of you do not know what it means.

Tachycardia is a faster than normal heart rate

 at rest. A healthy adult heart normally beats 

60 to 100 times a minute when a person is at 

rest. If you have tachycardia (tak-ih-KAHR-

dee-uh), the heart rate in the upper chambers 

or lower chambers of the heart, or both, is 

increased.

Heart rate is controlled by electrical signals 

sent across heart tissues. Tachycardia occurs 

when an abnormality in the heart produces 

rapid electrical signals.

In some cases, tachycardia may cause no 

symptoms or complications. However, 

tachycardia can seriously disrupt normal heart 

function, increase the risk of stroke, or cause

 sudden cardiac arrest or death.

Treatments may help control a rapid heartbeat

 or manage diseases contributing to 

tachycardia.

I am thrilled to now know, but now am in the 

process of trying to find out what kind.

New meds and lots of praying....I just hope the 

medicine works!

Aunt Judy is still doing good, so please keep

 praying for the both of us.

Now on to what I did yesterday and today.  You 

all know that I love to sew, right?  

It is my therapy....

Our other chair needed some work so I switched

 it out for this one.  The other slipcover was too big.

 I had bought a sheet set that I was 

hoping would go well with all of the British Rose.

I think it was perfect, so I made a new slipcover 

for the smaller chair.

Of course I had to make a new slipcover for the

 lampshade too...

Then I thought I needed a different curtain.  So I 

went through my linen closet for some spare white 

sheets and made this beauty.

It gives a little more white which goes better with 

the new slipcover for the chair.

I've added a few little things to this space like the

 scallop trim at the top of the tall white cabinet and

 the applique.

I love it here...it's quiet and peaceful.  Great for 

those nights you can't sleep and get on Pinterest for 

new ideas.

Plenty of lightning now that we've gotten rid of all 

of the fluorescent lighting.

Well, that's it for now.  I hope you all are enjoying 

your week before the 4th and that you have a

 blessed holiday!
