It's Here!!!


Just a quick post...lots of work to do!

My new (to-me) sewing table is here!  A friend drove his pickup truck and helped with the loading and unloading.  Phew!  It was wrapped up tightly in blankets so made the hour trip ok...had to lock the pets up for a bit while we wheeled it in...they seem to like it!  (gives Dobby a great view of his backyard...)

Still loads of organizing.  Before we left I was pretty proud of myself.  The shelves were all filled with fabric and the floor was cleared. It all fit!  Then I walked down the hallway and noticed the bed in our guest bedroom is covered in a mound about 2 foot tall of fabric!  Oh no!

Need a new plan....

It is sew nice to have a proper table for sewing. Don't cut yourself short on the chair, either. A good one is essential. Although I don't own a Bernina, I did buy the red Bernina sewing chair. It was pricey, but not as much as no-name sewing chairs sold at quilt shops in the area. It is worth every penny. Like sitting on a cloud. Don't fret, you will get it all sorted out. I had to laugh, because I am cleaning up my sewing room today as well.

Wonderful sewing table... all the hard work of rearranging will be worth it! Don't you find that simple changes to the sewing room inspire more creativity? And how nice of you to share it with your handsome cats!!!

Your new sewing table is a beauty and look at all those drawers. The kitties seem to approve.

Very nice...looks like a great spot to sew... and the kitties definitely seem to approve too!

I'm with Mary Ellen on getting a good (and adjustable) chair... makes a world of difference!

Enjoy!

Oops! Close the door on that extra bedroom for now and enjoy your new sewing cabinet.

Great new sewing cabinet, and a great position near the window too, you'll have your room all set up in no time!! Cats always like to see what's going on, they can be wonderful company while sewing and listening to classical music, which is what I do, my time-out from the world!!!!

You will love your new table. It makes sewing so much less laborious and all your tools right there in the drawers! Good luck with Masters' week. Look for a Supreme Slider (queen size) for your free motion quilting!!
