Welcome to where the magic happens ;)
after transforming my sewing studio into a guest room for the relies over christmas, It has given me the opportunity to re-organise, clean ad setup the space in a way I have not done in too long to mention!
So with a thoroughly tidy new space I thought it the bast time to share with you where I potter around on my weekends - dreaming of the day I can immerse myself fully...
My posters are all care of
Frankie magazine - I have collected them all since I moved here and lovingly placed them around my space - I'll admit I am getting close to having to cull/replace as new ones come through and I'm not sure what I'll do then...
My cutting table was wonderfully crafted by my father to my exact specifications , and my sewing table was handed to me by my mother who used to use it. My sewing machine was a gift from my grandparents on my 21st birthday and my overlocker was my first business purchase made shortly after I graduated from fashion school.
I get to look out at a fence...and sometimes the washing on the line...
But it can also be a good spot to see wildlife come by or people watch if I hear some action out there...
My wonderful bookcase was also made by my father, and is filled with photographs of loved ones, gifts and knick-knacks and an ever growing collection of gorgeous fashion books, as well as all my frankie and
peppermint magazines...
I also have several tubs loaded with vintage and retro fabrics about the place, from which I get my inspiration and create my garments from - I'm very excited about doing a lot more of this in 2013!
Also note the gorgeous framed picture - a cross-stitch from my mother, who is most definitely the source of my creative crafty genes!
and there is a peek into my little alison sarah world...
