As I watch my new sewing room taking
shape, I am both relieved and overwhelmed. It’s undergone a lot of
changes since we moved home from Greece. Instead of white walls and
ceramic tile floors, I have lovely blue walls and thick carpet. Love
the walls. Hate the carpet. Of course, this room is shaped
differently and I no longer have basement storage, so I am forced to
cram as much of my stash in here as possible, along with all my
office supplies.
It’s a lot of work, but I am loving
it.
The first thing I did was give all of
my machines a good cleaning. Can anyone tell me why I have five
sewing machines? I will say that they all get used, too, just for
different purposes. My embroidery machine, of course, gets
its own table and place of honor in the room. Because I spend more
time doing machine embroidery than anything else, it just
makes sense.
