I bought the variegated yarn in British Columbia and I have a wee bit left for one or two more hats.

This is the laundry basket full of flannels that I found in my sewing room. Kinda hard to miss, eh? Well, stuff was piled on top and when I unearthed it, I was a bit surprised. Going through the pile was a lot of fun. I found some novelty flannels that I incorporated in Patric's rag quilt.
It's amazing what you find when you're looking for something else. Beside this laundry basket is another one and when I took stuff off the top of it, I found patterns. I haven't gone through them yet.
I'm still looking for binding fabric for my youngest daughter's quilt but I really do think I have to go out and buy some brown. BTW, my sewing room is only about the size of a small bedroom - 8' X 10'. My family wonders why I have branched out into another bedroom (or two) to hold my back-up sewing machine and knitting yarns...
Maybe you could cut out a wall or two, and have one HUGE room, I find there is never enough storage for fabrics, wool or patterns. Love those wee hats. Cheers, Jean
ReplyDeleteI really don't know how anyone can keep their sewing room organized...I call mine creative chaos.
ReplyDeleteI had to smile when I read your fabric dilemma. I always find stuff when I am looking for something else. And my sewing room is taking over the entire house!
ReplyDeleteMy sewing room is about the size of yours and I never cease to amaze myself with just how much 'stuff' I can manage to 'stuff' in here. It IS fun to go looking for something and discover something I've forgotten I had though.
ReplyDeleteWow Dolores, now I want to explore MY room and see what I have in here, lol. Wish my boys would move out so I could take over their room....lol.
ReplyDeleteI have a month before I leave for quilt retreat, so I am about to go foraging in my room. The best part about shopping your stash is that you know you are going to find things you like.
