IT’S FINISHED!!
Or as finished as it’s gonna get for the moment….
Most of you know that my quilt studio has been a work in
progress for a couple of years. First
the DH had it as his “man-cave” until I twisted his arm he decided to
give it to me as my quilt studio. Then
my daughter and her husband and the two granddarlings borrowed it for about six
months until they could figure out where they wanted to live.
So needless to say, it has been a long time coming. I’ve been working on it since the end of
February. It simply wasn’t a process of
moving everything in; it was a process of reorganizing and reprioritizing. The shelves that stored all my fabric was a
wire mesh contraption that the DH had used in one of his man caves offices
and it was nearing the end of its usefulness it was held together by faith,
prayer, duct tape, pixie dust, and a cane.
Yes. You heard me right, a cane.
So new shelving had to be gotten.
I doubled by floor space with the new studio,
so my tiny, little sewing table had to go.
I now have two six foot tables, and
my original sewing table.
I cleaned out a file cabinet that was full of stuff I
had used when I taught school you know, back when we wrote on chalk boards instead
of white boards and lesson plans were actually done on paper and filed my
patterns in it please don’t ask if they’re in alphabetical order.
See that big, clear space on the back wall with the two
outlets? That’s where my long arm is
going eventually.
Now I know what all you are asking…especially the ones
that really know me. “Sherri…that can’t
be all your project boxes.”
Well you would be right….here’s the rest of them.
I am lucky enough to have a small storage room next to
the studio where all the boxes are stored. Don’t judge. My blog is a guilt-free zone.
I have been productive.
I’ve finished two quilts since I’ve had the new studio. I have two original quilts floating around in
my head and have picked out my next applique adventure.
Love and Stitches,
Sherri
