Clean start

1/15/2010

Well, sort of clean. As clean as I can get it right now. I love my little office/studio my husband carved out for me, when we added a family room to the back of the house. I have reduced my stash so it all fits in here (which is saying something!). I love the view from my one window, which looks out onto the garden and the bird bath, bird feeder, etc (I love birdwatching). The other window that looks out onto my neighbour back patio....not so much, but I have plans for that! The only problem is in the winter, it is very chilly sitting here. So, I have a heater beneath the desk and will often roll up a WIP to act as a draft block against the right side window where my mousepad lays.


I can see now from my pics, I need to do more tidying and editing - agh! My idea board needs a definite spring clean, as do my window sills. And a new chair perhaps. But for now, I have been on a designing run. Make hay, as they say. Four patterns in a week and a half! Samples to knit now and, oh, I just found a dress form (Judy) on Ebay that is on its way here! I keep getting UPS notice via email letting me know where it is! Where is she going to go???? I am so excited about this because it will be so much easier to fit a garment with out having to try it on all the time.
Well, back to knitting! Have a fab day everyone!
