Sewing Room Sneak Peek

Progress on my sewing/textile/fiber room is coming along. It’s been a slow-go for several reasons. One is the time of year. The garden still needs tending and is starting to produce too, so “food first.” 

The other reason is trying to figure out where everything will go. I didn’t realize how many boxes of yarns, fibers, and equipment I had. I feel like I’m trying to put 20 pounds of potatoes into a 5 pound sack. Even so, I’m glad I didn’t succumb to purge madness. Everything is so expensive nowadays, that I don’t have to worry about buying much for the rest of my life!

Yesterday, I found several more boxes of weaving yarns and spinning fibers. They’ve been boxed away in the front bedroom, which has served as our other storage/catch-all room. I was rather dismayed to find that mice had made themselves at home in one of the boxes!

I think this is partly because we keep the room closed and the cats don’t have access. More activity and the presence of humans and prowling cats would be an excellent deterrent. 

So progress is being made, albeit slowly. One of these days I’ll have everything in place and give you a grand tour!
