My Small Creative Sewing Space!

hi!

 i'm joining in with kootoyoo tonight.

a while back..teje from 'nero's post & patch' asked me

to show her my sewing space,

so here goes...

that little quilt is from a book of miniature quilts,

i made it about nine or ten years ago

and quilted it by hand...

it makes a lovely sewing machine mat

and keeps the table from getting scratched.

this is a view of the whole sewing table,

there is a bigger dining table next to it

where i have space to cut out patterns..and cushion covers & aprons!

i have only just bought those rectangular baskets..

they are made out of woven lengths of thick 'ribbon'

and have a metal frame.

they look a lot neater than the plastic container i used to have there

and are only from the cheap shop so weren't expensive.

the pink padded box is where my cotton is kept...

the plastic containers next to it are full of sorted embroidery cottons.

these are my fabrics...just a wee pile.

i have seen a lot of sewing rooms with fabrics

colour sorted and piled high in georgeous shelves and cabinets...

well that's not me.

i guess i'm a kind of minimalist when it comes to my sewing supplies...

most gets used almost as soon as it's bought at the moment.

i still enjoy what i do have though!

and

the more excited i am about my fabric

the more i just want to sew it up immediately...then it's gone..lol!

well that's really all there is to see..

i hope you enjoyed your peek teje!

{and anybody else who may be browsing!}

i made a couple of 'mushroom' cushions today..i'll keep them for later...

see ya!
