I had to laugh at that. I'm just the opposite. I have a guest room I could use for sewing but it is small with just one little window and makes me feel shut in. I have stuff in there but I work in the family room and on the glassed in porch where I can spread out however I want!
It makes a difference that I live alone and don't care that much about how the house looks. (don't like it, go away!) I also can't find anything I need but I get a lot of exercise going from room to room looking.
We are getting much needed rain so I am staying home and sewing today.
Kj05: Enjoy your new machine. I use a 25 year old no name yard sale find and it works for me. I can even do free motion quilting on it. I drool over the embroidery machines but I know they are not for me. Same with all the new machines with all the bells and whistles on them, nice to have but not in my budget.
Angie: Lovely blocks!
Justme: I wish you would just jump in like I did. It's fun and exciting planning for all the blocks you will make and receive. I don't think anyone here expects perfection at least I hope not. I do the best I can but that's not perfect. I think the folks that are horrified about a point cut off or a seam sewn lopsided will not get in a swap like this. The rest of us just want to see all your creations and have fun!
:D
Keep up the good work all! Back to sewing!
