This house has a sun room that faces north.  It has east windows and west windows and of course north windows.  I cleared the boxes out over the weekend and tested this arrangement.  I am still waiting for blinds to be installed.  When that is done I will clear everything out and lay down a thin carpet padding and sew these rag rug strips together into a carpet.  My mother was a weaver and always wanted to weave some rugs long enough to use as a carpet.  The house I was living in 30 years ago had hard wood floors in the bedrooms that were not all that pretty so she wove these strips for me and I sewed them together and they were wonderful.  Then we moved and I ripped out the stitching and rolled them up and moved them a couple times.  Now they are out for a good stretch and get to relax in my sun room for many years to come.

How beautiful! It looks like a spot that will bring you much peace and calm and inspiration. And how nice to have some of your mother's handiwork with you, too.
Such a gracious space! I love you Mom's woven rugs, too.
