BYC SEWING/QUILTING CLUB

OK here we go then:

My hoops and thangs.. I hate that wood panel wall, HATE IT.

My son's homework desk

I put a towel over it and use it as an ironing board.

My Serger, on the round table, with the stupid duct thing in the back so I can't even get in the dang CORNER.

My sewing machine cramped up on a little tiny table.

My plastic drawer storage..

Yarn closet.

That pic I posted was taken MANY years ago - my brother would be 45 now.

You got the stock girl.......Looks like a mini fabric shop. YOu can make the room work for you, really. Draw it out on paper then get to movin' things around.

YOu may could call a local church and see if they have any of the long wooden fold up tables for sale, some churches are upgrading to the white plastic ones. It's worth a try.

I really need to get me some serger thread bad. I only have one color.

I showed the pic of your brother to my daughter, who only seen my cousin once at my dad's funeral, and she bout freaked out. She said "oh my, it looks just like him in the face". She has now left the room.

I can't get through to my sis but I'll see if she has one. He will be 38 I think.

Yeah I have TONS of stuff. (I used to sew and sell stuff, so I kept good stock of things like elastics and such)

All those pretty colored threads are for the embroidery - really lovely colors...

For the serger, I LOVE wooly nylon, but its tough to thread - my machine has the jet air threading which makes it a little easier.. and you only want the wooly nylon on the bottom, not through the needles.

They had some tables at an auction a few weeks ago - I could KICK myself, but really there is no room in that room to put anything else... I really want my hubby to move the roll top desk down to the basement or something.

It would be really kinda neat to see a pic....

A funny thing happened a few weeks ago - my sister who still lives in S.Africa, was going out with a buddy for a night on the town, her friend came into her bedroom and saw a picture of my brother on the wall... anyhoo - turns out her friends cousin was a good friend of my brother - we didn't know, and she sent my sister a whole BUNCH of photos - just a couple of months ago - it was really sad and yet it was really nice to see more pictures you know...

My middle daughter would

over all that yarn.

If we had a basement that is where my sewing room would be.

I have two trash bags of yarn on the patio!

I gave one trashbag full to the school for the kids to mess with.

I might be moving to the basement, not sure. We need the room up here for guests to stay. We all live UPstairs (bedrooms and bathroom up there), and have two bedrooms on the main floor, one is a guest room, one my sewing room, but we might need another guest room soon....
I like to keep en eye on the kids, so it suits me to have it on the main floor.

Yes, Coyote, that's it but I just can't get my brain to see how they put the pieces together.
