    How inspiring your sewing room is. I raised African Voilets years ago , before the kids - loved them - now I have a brown thumb.
    Thank you for sharing you beautiful pictures

    I love the bright room and the violets, I used to have several violets but have moved into a new home and it doesn't have very good indirect lighting, I do miss them.
    Nice room.

    love your sunshiny room ! but I notice, not the violets, but the chrome table & what must be a vintage sewing machine under that cover. what a comfy room.

    I love African Violets too--my grandmother always had at least a dozen in her dining room window. I also have at least that many in my front window, too. Keeps me from going nuts in the winter... ;-)

    Thanks for sharing your cozy room with us. I like that your African violets share that bright light with you. Your sewing cabinet looks vintage. What machine do you have hiding underneath the sewing machine cover?
