Sewing Room Update

Hi friends,
 As you have probably been told we are doing updates to the house one room at a time.  Eventually we will get to every room, but that will be years down the road.  One of the rooms that is really low on the priority list is the sewing room.  It has basically been a storage room with my sewing machine sitting on a folding table in the corner.  It has been so cluttered that I have to stretch and step over things to even get to the sewing machine.  Yesterday while Jeremy was buying a desk at Ikea I decided to finally get a chair to sit in while I sew.  The folding chair was not very comfortable.  That gave me the motivation to clean the room.  It took a couple of hours.  This afternoon we stopped at a garage sale some friends of ours were having and I picked up a cute old desk.  I now feel like this is a room I could actually work in.  Someday the popcorn ceilings will be gone and the walls will be painted, but for now I'm feeling pretty good about this room.

 I didn't take a picture of the opposite corner of the room which has my bookshelf organized with sewing books and my old textbooks.  I can actually get to them now which is pretty great!
 Before you ask, I did not make the skirt in the picture.  I bought it from Tulle a few months back when they were having a huge sale, but it doesn't fit me.  This was my way of justifying keeping it.  It fits my dress form really well.
I hope you are all having a great holiday weekend.  I have been getting so much accomplished!
