loft evolution

I kept holding off on sharing some of the changes I made to the loft over break (one whole day, several episodes of streaming Great Expectations later... even my fabric was re-folded and organized) because there are several works in progress and it's a little messy. My thinking was I could continue to wait or just snap away... a sewing room is supposed to be a little chaotic, that means it's well loved. There's been a bit of an evolution to this loft of mine. And if you've been here for a while, you know it is the sunniest part of the house... I'm terribly lucky. That sun doesn't always love my books however, and so I moved my books to the opposite wall with my sewing and crafting book. I get to look at it while I'm sewing... a bonus indeed. I created one large working area with my sewing and cutting tables now facing each other. I love this. My inspiration board is a little bare, and I'm contemplating a return of my thread organizer to the wall, but that will probably come after some paint... or wallpaper? I know I'm stalking that wallpaper, it's a problem. So that lovely little spot is where I'm hanging out these days when I have some time... a huge stack of flannel arrived (I fell in love with flannel after Rob's blanket) and I'm currently making a cozy blanket for these coolish winter days (Saturday was 61!). I'm loving changes in weather and changes in the organization of our home equally these days. Change is very, very good. Happy Monday!

I LOVE your loft! I have a 1920's Dutch Colonial and have just taken over the sunniest room in the house, mind you, I live in Florida and we often times dodge the sun! Thought of you last night as I DVR'ed the new season of Downton Abbey... can't wait to watch it!!! Keep the movie ideas coming!

You have a beautiful space and I just love the box of rick rack. I thought it was funny the wallpaper you're looking at is called Lady of the Manor! :)
