On Creating a Creative Space

Growing up I was lucky enough to spend a lot of time with my grandparents.  The lessons they taught me are too numerous to count but the one I want to talk about today is the importance of carving out for your self your own personal creative space. My grandpa is 88 years old and he still maintains a creative space of his own.  In fact, I took this photo of his work desk on one of my recent visits to his home.

My Small Sewing Space

Today I get to share with you my small sewing space. I would be lying if I said I didn't want a spacious sewing studio with a pool table sized cutting tables, grand windows, beautiful hardwood floors, and walls lined with shelves full of expensive fabric.  BUT...even though that would be crazy awesome and I would love it...I can't complain.  I have carved out for myself a small sewing nook that I use everyday and LOVE (a lot) even if it won't ever be on the cover of a magazine. ...
