Will I ever see any progress?

I have been progressing slowly. The bay window is now attached and I am painstakingly adding siding on the sides 1 board at a time. It seems I will never finsh, but I know I will. I packed up the dollhouse in the car today and took it to Joann's what a mistake. As I was pushing a basket around the store, I think half of the city I live in had to look at it. There were a lot of women there getting spuulies for a beginning serger class at the community college adult community programs. I finally did get some material suitable for carpeting and drapes. I had accidently tossed the wallpaper scras in the trash, that Is why I needed to take the hosue with me. I am glad this is a small house I could see trying to get the "Garfield down the isles to find carptet and drape material. LOL.

I hope to have some pics of the progress in a few days.

LOL!! I can just see you wending your way through the store with a line of little ladies following ... like the Pied Piper! It's amazing how magnetic a dollhouse is. On my way to Wally World this morning I passed the Lighthouse resale shop, and in the window was: a 3-story dollhouse! I managed not to stop, but on the way back ... was relieved to see up close that it was really very crudely built (not from a kit) and had a NOT FOR SALE sign on it. I didn't even go inside to see the inside.

Phew! I feel like an alcoholic who just met a friend in a bar and didn't succumb to temptation ... LOL!!
