Home Interior: Guests

I LOVE hand sewn goods.  I just hate to be the person whose hands are sewing them.  You know I thoroughly enjoy DIY projects: <a href="http://dans-le-townhouse.blogspot.com/2010/12/new-evidence-of-painting-charlie.html">painting a car</a>, <a href="http://dans-le-townhouse.blogspot.com/2011/01/diy-treadle-sewing-machine-base-desk.html">making a desk</a>, <a href="http://dans-le-townhouse.blogspot.com/2010/11/blog-post.html">tearing up carpet</a> . . . anything but sewing.  Happily, my mom offered to do some sewing for me while she was here, so I made an addition to the guest room:<br /><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto;
