My studio is located in the most beautiful room of our house. It has a 10 foot ceiling, and three enormous windows. Late last week, after a series of deadlines had left this magical space in an undignified disarray, I embarked on operation clean-up. The photos above shows the progress... It is almost done. Most of my beautiful fabrics have been pulled out of the closet, and placed on open shelves and display racks. I love having it all right there for reference and inspiration. I also have cleared out two work stations - one for cutting and assembly and another one for sewing. Right now, when everything still is in place, it feels luxurious. I am wondering how long the order will last. The voting is in full swing over at poppytalk, and I would love to receive yours for favorite handmade housewares, if you are inclined...
the sewing corner, with lots of room for big projects
my favorite (for the moment) fabrics on display.

could not resist this crate from three potato four
pin board with sketches, inspirations, and various treasures from friends and family
the computer corner...

ReplyDeleteI love before and after pictures, and hope you can hold on to the order, but the tumble looks like the place where something was created
ReplyDeleteI loved seeing the shots of your studio, Lotta, and I am glad to know I'm not the only one whose studio looks like that after a whirlwind of production. The "afters" look so nice. I love how it feels in the studio when it's all cleaned up--even though it is usually short-lived. ;)

ReplyDeleteI love seeing the work spaces of other artists. I am drooling over all your natural light and gorgeous textiles.
