Sew, the other day with fall in the air, I thought, ‘why not transform my sewing space.’ It seemed like a good idea at the time.
My pile of fabrics that I’ve had good intentions to use next or put away. However, I managed to get busy on something else and my fabric was taking on a life of its own.
I started with sorting by color. Bee-cause that seemed the easiest.
Whites, yellows and oranges. That white one with stars is a Halloween seasonal, sew that might have to be moved to a different pile.
Lights with prints. Maybe the Halloween stars can go with the Christmas presents?
1 Corinthians 14:40 Let all things be done decently and in order.
I thought I was making progress, but it doesn’t look like it.
One thing I was planning to do was take the bed out or at least stand it up so I could have more space. The bed was from my cousins family business, Dunn’s Furniture Co., Inc., in Houlton, Maine and I think was probably bought 75-80 years ago. It was my mother’s birthday present one year.
I tried to get the pictures in the right direction, but they kept turning on me.
Luke 18:27 But He said, “The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.”
Things went downhill fast. What’s left of the springs, must be made of lead. I could hardly lift the mattress and when I did it basically came back on me. Flipped and upside-down. That was not my plan. There’s probably a million ways to die, but dying by mattress attack shouldn’t be one of them.
I changed my plan slightly and had the kids move it out.
The next day I dug out my mop and dusty Xtra-Lemon with an expiration date of 1968. Still has its lemon fresh scent!!
Later that afternoon I had transformed the bedroom into a more functional sewing space.
It’s still not exactly what I would like, however it’s good enough for now.
It includes a mix of my old sewing items and a few new ones.
Now I just have to find the project I was working on before I started the transformation.
