I managed to tidy up my sewing room yesterday, and today the light in there was so lovely I took some pictures. This is where Nora and I hang out a lot of the time - her cot is usually in here too, and the work table with lots of drawers is in use right now as a change table and is full of nappies and baby clothes!
YES, this is a VERY nice and creative place!
Your collection of beautiful fabrics is like a piece of heaven.
I remember our first
papier mache´workshop here:)

What a wonderful room! And it includes my very favorite piece of IKEA furniture, that I have not yet splurged on for myself - but would in a red hot second!
It "feels" so peaceful in there - even through the photos. It is nice to have a Mind's Eye of where you spend time...thanks for that!

Hi Kristina, hope all is good? If only we could swap sewing room time for allotment time :) I dream of having an allotment one of these days!

The satisfaction of a beautiful and tidy sewing room! My studio is a mess, I have to tip toe round piles of things everywhere, so I get a vicarious pleasure from seeing nicely ordered creative spaces! Your blog is wonderful, so chock-a-block full of things to inspire and drool over, thank you! Love Vanessa xxx

Hi Vanessa, thanks for stopping by! Before I tidied up there were actually many piles being tip toed around, and tripped over :) Each time I do a major tidy up in there I always wander what took me so long to do it, because you are right - a happy tidy space to create is a huge satisfaction. It's always a trade off though, between a tidy space and being able to easily see/find stuff! Cheers, Sam
