Sewing Room Re-organization ….Again!

Maybe I'm just procrastinating!
but my sewing space arraignment has not worked for me
so … YUP... it's time to reorganize!


 Here it is as you enter from the hallway
it seems to have a less crowded feeling


 This is the desk and sewing corner - with my Bernina 440.
Great for all the piecing projects I have on my to do list.



My main quilting area
features my Janome 6600 and my Horn sewing table
with storage cubes purchased at Michael's
and plastic project storage boxes from Joann's
Luckily the cubes and bins fit perfectly under the leaf of my sewing table!

The extra room the leaf provides can be used for cutting and pressing
or cleared for machine quilting the stack of projects behind the iron!


View from the desk  corner of the room - 
Yes … way too many books!

This set up features a nice view out to my deck and backyard…
which will be lovely once Spring and Summer arrive.
They are coming …. soon I hope!

Hoping this arraignment will provide me with a better workable space!
Okay back to Quilty Work!!

Happy 4th of July ... spent in the ditch!

Yup I'm in a ditch!
Stitching the ditch that is!
Finally at the stage where the machine quilting has started!


 Getting as close as I can!

 Love my Sharon Schamber's Halo.
Gives great control, no gloves and my shoulders
are not killing me!


Since my new Janome 6600 has a 9 inch bed I can 
fit the quilt thru with ease. My Bernina 440 only had a 7inch
bed which made quilting larger quilts a bit more, 
Difficult, Challenging, "Interesting"!

The Aunt Millie's Garden Quilt is 70 x 80 and fits thru nicely!
Very Happy!!
