hello fabrics

Yippee!! I finally unpacked my fabrics. If you're reading this blog then it's highly possible you may also understand the joy of beautiful textiles. It's not something my husband "gets" and well, the kids are too young (but don't worry... they will be brainwashed to appreciate the art).

I feel like a kid in a lolly shop every time I walk into my workroom. Don't they look gorgeous all neatly stacked in their colour families. Oooohhh.... I could eat them!

oops, upside down

So I'm over the renovations & moving (well not over as in completed, but over as in had enough) and say hello again to my Bernina - that's if I can find her! I have a swag of new designs and ideas swimming around in my head and can't wait to get started. Only one wee problem - the state of my work room (or should I say junk/storage room).

There really is no way one can be productive and creative in a space so full of clutter and mess, so today is going to be a day of sorting.

I'm making this Hammer & Spanner set for my Sister-In-Law's new little baby boy! Very cute, but a perfect example of the standard that comes out of a chaotic workroom..... things come out upside down. Oh well, nothing a little unpicking and re-sewing can't fix. Good one Fiona!
