Mission Completion!, Part Two

Months ago (seven months ago to be exact) I suggested that our hideous, beat-up stage at church needed some help. We meet in a rec center and got the stage for free, so we lived with it, but every week I would stare at the rust, the cords, and the abyss underneath, thinking it was so distracting! After months of morning sickness, months of sewing, and months of waiting for the stage to be painted and prepped for a skirt, the job is finally done!

I so wish I had a before picture to show off how awful this stage was before, but you'll just have to trust me.  It is a huge improvement.  I'm so happy I (ahem, WE... thanks, Gina, Jim, and Jesse!) took the time to do this, even though it was a big pain in the neck.  It wasn't that it was hard, it's just that I kept running into stupid issues with the sewing and wasn't used to working with that much fabric!!  Anyway, I'm so happy it is done.  It feels good to check it off the list officially!  And I'm happy that our fabulous worship band has a nice place to stand so we can focus on something much more important than an ugly stage.
