And you've so inspired me! My sewing room, while big, has been really hard to feel at home in because it's not organised well. Partly because I'm not very good at that kind of thing (I get overwhelmed by details), and partly because all the wall space is taken up by windows and a design wall and I don't have a good system for my scraps since moving. I love all your touches that make it feel like a living room, not just an office. It's made me feel like it's definitely worth putting more thought into, rather than waiting till I've finished all those WIPs! <br />And thank you for your lovely comments on my blog. You're such an encouraging friend. xxxJodi Godfreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02385968253480503033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4876056478789612969.post-68394627874816804812015-07-15T14:58:05.480-05:002015-07-15T14:58:05.480-05:00Thanks for sharing your new space with us.

I've often thought about that in wanting a dedicated sewing space, but the down side to that would be being alone for much of the time. Great view too!! Is it very hot right now in the area of Texas that you're in? I lived in Dallas for two summers and it was HOT and HUMID!! Hope the weather is tolerable for you there! :-) I've gotten your book and want to do some of the projects, but TIME is an issue!! I hope to get to some of them for gifts: there are some good ideas in the book. :-) Hugs, H in HealdsburgHelen Lhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11262129294254896564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4876056478789612969.post-73409690558863706522015-07-07T08:23:46.696-05:002015-07-07T08:23:46.696-05:00Oh how I LOVE a sewing room post!!!

The room also doubles as a playroom for my grandchildren so, although it is nowhere near as large as yours, you have given me some great ideas. I especially like the 'library' area and am even now thinking about how I can recreate that in my room.

I've met so many bloggers, got very creative w/a few pieces of fabric, planned a sew day each week (I'm sorry you had to suffer for 2 months w/o stitching), that must have been agonizing.<br />I love your organizational style! Fantastic tips in the book and now that I got a birds eye view, it's in the works for my sewing area this Autumn. The book nook is so cool, I have no little ones , but have in my library , I've used and collected 5-6 sewing/quilting books:) <br />Not quite as tall as you, about 3" shorter but I do need a higher surface in which to cut. your cutting area is divine! Thank you, Heidi, for blogging and sharing your talents. I do appreciate you:)Diane Beavershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05005331045945636458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4876056478789612969.post-68584113359537612732015-07-06T19:41:31.932-05:002015-07-06T19:41:31.932-05:00Hi Heidi, glad you and your family arrived safe &a...Hi Heidi, glad you and your family arrived safe & sound to your new home in Texas.
