Today I began moving things back into the studio.
The shelves are filling up much faster than the guest rooms are emptying.
How many buttons does one need? Colors of ribbon?
Bits and baubles? Old watches, glasses, pieces of wool, little petticoats,
tiny shoes, wooly mittens, baskets, boxes, tins, threads, wooden shoes, picture frames
and . . . pairs of scissors?
I guess the answer lies in not knowing what inspiration will lead you to need
one or all of these things.
So . . . I'll find a place ~ a place for all these little bits, because I just might
need them one day!

I won't pester you with anymore photos until I'm
fully set up and stitching . . . soon I hope!
Happy Stitches,

Fantastic. It looks as though you are ready to roll. I'm afraid I must be a hoarder because I have far more stuff to store that that. I wish I could cull it down a bit more. How I though out very old antique lace and buttons I have been given. Or threads of different colours that may be I might want. The list goes on.
HUgs and happy sewing.
Oh Kay . . . this is not all there is by any means :-)
After I fill this closet, there are 2 large cupboards, then a linen closet and antique cupboard at the end of the hall. Next an old cupboard in one guest room and both guest rooms closets! ha ha . . . AND a basement! My sewing room is actually not large, it was a guest room. I love the morning light, but have to shift things in and out seasonally. I'm sure you are not a hoarder in my eyes!

You are not pestering me. I'm enjoying this process and you are inspiring me to clean up my studio!
Oh my goodness...what a lovely studio! You are an inspiration surely, and I shall continue to look forward to your progress. Take joy in the adventure!
I also have been enjoying the pictures and the process of reorganizing. I am mostly a rug hooker and have one closet full of wool clothes waiting to be dyed or repurposed. Of course that's not all the wool. Your pictures are inspiring me to do some work playing in my work room.
Keep Pestering! It looks great... looks like I didnt hold you up the other day! great progress and So inspiring! x o
I feel so refreshed hearing that you have other cupboards that you fill as well. I was thinking I must have way too much STUFF. You know the "One day" saying.
I am also enjoying the pictures of your progress in your workroom! I love how the closet turned out it's such a beautiful colonial colors and your collections look wonderful in it!!!
