I generally
knit in the living room. I spin on the balcony and spindle at the dining table. When I sew
I take over our little dining room. This has always been fine, I've
taken out the sewing machine, done the hem or made a box bag and packed
it all away within a day or
two. I've never longed for my own crafty space where I can set up and
leave things. Patching has changed all that. I had fabric all over the
dining room for nearly three weeks, I had the ironing board out and it
all felt messy. Yesterday I got a tablet computer
to replace my decrepit laptop. Without the laptop I can use my desk as
sewing space. In the study I'm happy to leave the ironing board up all
the time. Leon and I have started rearranging the study so that I can set up there, and leave everything out for as long as it takes.
Meanwhile I crocheted a pin cushion. I was using a magnetic one, but the cats like to pull the pins out and drop them in random placing in the house. Needles to say, our house is not child safe! I think it's super cute, and I'm very excited about starting my next patched cushion.
