Most days I spend 10 to twelve hours in the room that used to be our dining room. I start my day there drinking my coffee and checking email and blogs. I spend most of the day in there sewing and usually at the end of the day I spend some time at the computer again. Its not the dining room anymore, it's my room. My sewing room. My little corner of the world. Here is a look around the room.
This is the view looking in from the kitchen. Come on in.
The picture on the right is looking back into the kitchen.
I bought this chandelier over a year ago. It has been in the garage in the box. Mitch painted it for me this week and hung it yesterday. I have ordered some crystals to hang from it. The little foot stool in the picture on the right is a bushel basket that I use as a trash can. I made this little top for it with some foam I had and a clock I wasn't using anymore. It was the perfect size for the top of the basket. I just stapled the fabric on and instant foot stool. Now I think I'll get in that chair with a book and try it out.
Loves it!! The chair looks really cozy! Wish I could be there!

It sure does look like a nice work environment. I like the table with the big cutting mat on it - that must be nice!

You have such a nice workspace. Everything so open and close at hand. And the foot stool is darling.
