Creative space

For a few days last week I was rearranging my creative space. It's not a room you can close a door on rather it is in the corner of an L shape with the dining room on one side and the boys school room and hubby's hobby on the other side.

Before

I was starting to feel a little crowded! I couldn't spin in my sewing chair without hitting the table behind me so I finally decided to change a few things.

I swapped my grandparents dining table (this was so hard to let go of!) for the corner desk and hutch that had been mine as a teenager. I have lots of pretty and precious things to look at while I sew now! And I also scored an old bookshelf unit on wheels which is holding lots of bits and bobs.

And my hubby made me a couple of ruler stands. I don't know how I survived without these, they are so great!

It's a bit hard to see but I turned the cupboard next to the ironing board around to face the front, took the old quilt off the wall to give it a much needed wash and hung up some treasured minis in its place.

After

I feel so much more organised and inspired to sew now. Already I have finished a couple of wips and a new project too! So I have much to share in the future!

Happy sewing, Jess
