“Room to make her big mistakes”

Blog friend Robin posted a picture of her sewing area, her creative space. And asked for others to post theirs too……although mine isn’t nearly as neat, organized and all pretty like hers. But just for fun, this is where I sew……

I get a corner of the desk in an upstairs bedroom that we’ve always used for an office. I’m not very neat when sewing and hubby finally got tired of sharing the desk with me so he’s moved his laptop to a desk in another room and I still use this one. There are WAY too many of his books and stuff left in the room I work in, it’s basically like a library too. Plus I have a fax machine, printer, copy machine etc. all in the vicinity of the desk. But I did actually sew today and got one thing accomplished and monogrammed! Now I need to get on some baby stuff. K’s new baby is due the first part of next month!

    How fun to “see” inside your house. I really need to get some photos up and invite you all to my house.

    How fun!
    Somehow, our desk area here got an attack of paper clutter! I so need to clean and organize!

    Oh, and learn to sew…;)

    What a nice big, light space to have. Mine feels pretty cramped and crowded. I think I need a better table. I have tried diagnosing my problem and that is what I have come up with. I use such a small table and it is too high and too deep so I have to stand up to reach things. Hmmm. Something to think about.

    I like your office/sewing room!

    I think it’s just nice to have a space to create – I am jealous that you have “a space”!

    Great pics 🙂 You should post a picture of that wall of books to the left of your desk!

    Did you make something for baby Sam? Post pictures of baby stuff, I want to see stuff for Sam 🙂

    Hey – thanks for sharing a picture of your creative place! Don’t you just love your Bernina? Bernina is my new best friend! I also like your nice long sewing table. That would be really helpful to have all that space – especially for the laptop. Just imagine – you can blog AND sew all at the same time. Does it get any better than that!

    I’m with Stacy… show us the books, show us the baby stuff!

    It’s nice to see where you are when you visit with us!

    I’m not very neat when I sew either. I do like your space because of the windows! Great lighting! That’s the problem I have. I don’t really have a designated area, I just sew wherever I can. I need to designate a place so that I will be more apt to sew!

    (In reference to your post on my blog) Oh. My. Gosh. You have never used the knee pedal with your Bernina?!! You have to try it – it is the best thing ever!

    Yah, come on, show us what you made!!!

    Besides sewing a bunch of stuff for Annie’s new room, I really haven’t sewn in ages. I’m thinking Halloween costumes this year…but there probably won’t be time.

    Hi Gail

    I liked your comment on the healing issue at Jenny’s blog so I thought I’d come and say “hi”

    HI! LOL
