      I am lucky enough to have a sewing room-I can close the door and walk away from the mess!

    oh my… the photos… and how i envy you…. always wished I could sew… even bought a ‘good’ machine thinking that would help… the most of done is fun stitches on paper, that I turned into photoshop brushes. 🙂 lol

    lovely… thanks for joining 5 facts…. xo

      What a cool idea-photoshop brushes—are you interested in joining forces–I will sew a few designs–you make brushes?

    I love your header … so colourful!! What a beautiful 5 facts … stunning work, nicely done! Thanks for sharing. I love quilting too … but photography takes up my creative bursts and my fabric cupboard sits waiting to … hmm, be photographed!!
    Enjoy your weekend.

    Ambitious! Like nancyjean, I love the pincushion photo! I started sewing when I was pregnant when the fit in the shoulders was the main focus…then it just grew from there…and so did the fabric stash!

      Do you still do garment sewing? I gave it up –I like quilting better, no need for fittings…

    Lori I quit making clothes when I started quilting. and my wardrobe suffered. All money spent on fabric. I wish I had kept my first 830 Bernina, but sold it and got a 1230. Actually had one on loan from Bernina too because I had written a book and traveled and taught (back in the early 90’s. When I started Photoshoping quilting took a back seat. Nearly moved the machine to the basement. (OMG, how dare I?)

      Sounds like heresy to me–the Bernina downgraded to the basement. I do agree, however-both quilting and photoshop are jealous mistresses-demanding a great deal of time and attention!
