Sewing room back in order
 

Two years and four major surgeries on both elbows and wrist, I am almost finished putting my sewing room back in order. That room looked like the latest Oklahoma tornado hit it!! I began working in there Memorial Day weekend. Spent three days of my weekend and numerous evenings after work. Takes a long time to reorganize two years of mess. During my recuperation my husband placed most everything without a specific home into my sewing room. It really got out of hand. Caught him doing it again Monday. Old habits die hard. Let's just say I was not happy!! I think he now understands the importance of not doing that again. Still have a little ways to go, but hope to begin sewing again in July. :)

Glad u r recovered and organized!

good that your feeling motivated to sew again and that among all the operations and adjustments,
you got your dh reconfigured :D
If mine comes into my sewing room, he knows he better not say anything negative or I'll remind
him all about his "deathtrap shop" etc. :eek:

So happy you're recovered and have lots of sewing fun!

Oh how nice that you're recovered!! It's a chore to clean up a sewing room, but not a really unpleasant one, I think! (I'd rather do that than dishes or laundry any day!)

I hope you're having lots of fun creative thoughts as you get your space back in order! I bet you have a huge list of things you want to work on, after so much time out.

I hope you will have many happy hours of sewing in your newly reorganized room. Must feel great.

For years I reminded my husband of his "deathtrap garage" every time he mentioned my out-of-control studio. Now that I'm culling/organizing/decluttering he is starting to rethink his garage. Maybe it's contagious!!!!!

When DH would try things or "forget" as he calls where to put things in their rightful place, I just ask him if he wants the neighbors to know our business by my "wifi"?.

I started cleaning my sewing room. everything had been shoved in there when we put down new flooring in the kitchen and living room areas. Got a good bit done until I got distracted. Found my glass blocks and gallery glass paints and well, maybe get back to work tomorrow when the paint dries. lol. at least i can get in there now.

I wouldn't wait until July.... unless you're still trying to find the sewing machine! LOL
One day at a time, which you already know from your surgeries.
Sometimes sewing is the best medicine!
Continued healing and best wishes.
