True Confessions


I thoroughly enjoyed the time I spent over the holidays simply hand stitching. My Quilty 365 circles kept me entertained each morning and I spent my evenings keeping up with my other “applique” obligations pleasures.



So, when I opened my sewing room door on Saturday, I could hardly believe the mess that stared back at me. I’m sure we all use our personal space as a catch all during the busy holiday months, but this was, well… see for yourself!




I spent a little lot of time this weekend straightening. One half of the room done. The other half this coming weekend. I feel better for coming clean and showing the true me. I just hope I remember how to use my machine, once I uncover it!

  4. I went through a very similar experience over the holiday. But now the sewing room is serving as guest room with two air mattresses and a porta-crib. So I get to go through it again. : )

  5. I always said to myself : if there is mess in my sewing-room, it's because I'm busy !
    But, but I agree with you, sometimes it's better to clean ! It's looks pretty now and ready to work Wendy !

  6. Oh, I'm jealous of your lovely chair and wonderful window! I don't have the space for such a corner in my sewing room. Looks like you have tidied enough to invite the creativity bug for a visit!

  8. Mine is still a wreck so you are way ahead of me! I keep throwing things in there to "deal with" ha ha
    Must do it, but my daughter is only here 1 more week so it will wait. I love your chair by the window it looks perfect for hand stitching.

  9. If we are honest--all our sewing spaces could use some tidy time. It has a way of sneaking up on us
