a long weekend means ......

lots of time in the sewing room.

I have finally finished sorting through my stuff and have set up the new shelves.

this is what it looked like BEFORE

this is what it looks like NOW

I am now able to keep all of my quilting magazines in the one spot - they were spread out in different bookcases before.  ALL of my active projects are in clear containers on the left - the white basket in the top section holds all my Farmers Wife Sampler fabrics and the completed FWS blocks are in the box on the top of the shelves.

The white baskets hold various bits of fabrics, and all of my batting and interfacing stuff is on the bottom shelf.

My coloured scraps containers are the next items to be sorted out - they are on the right in the BEFORE photo, but I think I might put that off for another time, as now I am motivated to sew!

Thank you for visiting my blog today - I hope you have a good day - any day doing something you love makes it a good day ;-)

FNwF - Friday Night with Friends

My LQS has closed :(  but there is some good news in that A Quilter's Odyssey will continue with workshops and classes and guest speakers at another location :)  They are still on Facebook so it will be very easy to keep up to date on things :)

Some of the fixtures and fittings were for sale, and I was able to buy two shelf units and a trestle table.

My Friday night was spent with Mr Fixit putting all the shelves together :)

So, this is my sewing room at the moment - a mis-match of storage options.

Stay tuned for more pics over the next week or so, as I sort through that wall of 'stuff' :)
