Welcome to my Studio

Studio:  a fun, fanciful title for the repurposed bedroom I use for my sewing.   Yea, nothing fancy here, but it functions pretty well for me.  So check it out....
Color, color everywhere.  I am obsessed with color, I love color, I dream in color.  These are just some of the almost 400 embroidery threads that I use when embroidering designs on my Viking sewing machine.  Aren't they luscious?  Also, 3 of my favorite "sewing" candle houses (part of the Blue Sky collection by Heather Goldminc)  are right where I can see them as I sew.
 These threads are used for garment sewing.
 And buttons, they're pretty important, too.  Here are just a few jars in my collection; some are vintage, some are new, and some are just funky.
 I like to surround myself with all my favorite things while I work and this seasonal candle holder is one of my favorites.   It's another Heather Goldminc piece.
Here's another one entitled The Thirsty Flamingo.
 This is where the real work happens, two sewing machines surrounded by loads of natural light.  
 Of course there has to be room for reference books and patterns stored in the drawers below.   Every little nook and cranny in this room has to be efficiently organized.
Thank goodness for the computer armoire, desk and my little tv that keeps me company.  Hope you enjoyed the tour.  It's a space that makes me happy and always puts a smile on my face when I'm in there.

Time to get back to work,
Debbie
