All the large pieces of fabric are put away. All that's left is refolding the fat quarters - hundreds of them. At least I'm doing it quickly. I decided not to iron them again - in spite of my compulsive A-type personality - and they look just fine. I'll have to iron them again when I use them anyway.
This afternoon we'll clean the carpet when Fred gets home from golfing, and then we'll put the center island together. It's getting there!
I needed to put together this corner so it would start feeling like my own room again.
All the larger rulers have moved to the closet wall, and the narrow, long rulers next to the cabinets in the closet corner.
What a wonderful new space! Those cabinets are really nice. This should really be a fun place to work.
ReplyDeletePatti, it is looking wonderful. Could you share with us exactly what cabinets you bought. They are perfect!!
ReplyDeleteThat is just awesome! I love the green walls, and your fabric looks just gorgeous in those cabinets.
ReplyDeleteIt is looking fabulous, Patti! I love the contrast of the green and white!
ReplyDeleteOh my, Patti - it's beautiful. Looks like a candy store. Yummy!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see it with your center island cutting table.
Oooh wow - those empty shelves are so exciting! A place for everything! You have inspired major sewing room jealousy on my part :)
ReplyDeleteOh it looks fabulous! Now the type-A me has to point out that the center top shelf in the skinny cabinet is one knotch higher than the rest...did you know that? Good for you not ironing, I did about half and half only ironing what wouldn't lay down.
ReplyDeleteIt took me a minute to figure out how pairs of 2 didn't quite equal 5 but then I realized you bought the single cabinet to fit. Perfect! Hubby has forbidden me from looking anymore..fat chance..he sees a trip to the IKEA an hour away in the next year to possibly get cabinets!
Oh my Patti...it is beautiful! I do love the green and the white shelves are perfect against it. It's going to be soooo wonderful when you are done!
ReplyDeleteYou'll have to give guided tours...LOL I'm signing up right away and drooling all over my keyboard! Hugs, Finn
Those cabinets are just perfect, your room will be fabulous when everything is in its place.
ReplyDeleteYour room is coming along great. I do love the white cabinets against the green walls. Very striking.
ReplyDeleteSimply stunning!
ReplyDeleteThey look great Patti. I know you'll love them and I can't believe how quickly you've gotten the fabric folded and on the shelves.
ReplyDeleteWow Patti, it looks amazing. I was also wondering which cabinets you had used. I was browsing the Ikea catalogue and couldn't decide which ones they were.

What a delectable space. Now, Patti, what you need to do when you're all finished is make a movie showing us the studio in action :-).
ReplyDeleteWow, you have some fabric! Good for you. I too love the white against the green. I can so relate to the refolding and ironing dliemma - my obsessive compulsive disorder rears it's ugly head! I just wish it applied to housework and exercise too...
ReplyDeleteYour new space is absolutely wonderful. It looks so neat and organized. I hope it inspires you to make loads of gorgeous quilts.
ReplyDeleteIt looks amazing! What a great space you have for your quilting!
ReplyDeleteOh Patti! Look at all I"ve missed! They look wonderful! And I love your ruler wall! I just love rulers! If I ever get a sewing room when the kids move out I"ll have to find out from you where you got those shelves! They are wonderful!
ReplyDeleteWow - this is looking so great. How wonderful to have such a neat and organized space.
ReplyDeletePatti - your sewing room is gorgeous! I can't wait to see the island.
ReplyDeleteLove the green on the walls - very energizing!
What a fantastic room! Those cabinets look wonderful with the fabric on display. Will you every leave that room again?
ReplyDeleteI'm thoroughly enjoying seeing the progress being made in your sewing room...Isn't Ikea great!!! The white cabinets look great and having doors on them means your fabric won't get dusty. It should be quite an inspirational room to work in...keep posting those pics :o)
ReplyDeleteI just love the white shelves. Your room is looking so pretty.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea about hanging the rulers in the closet.
