This weekend was the last steps we needed to take to get things livable again and I was so excited as I organized my stash in the back room, I started making rhymes in my head. By the time I had things back in shape I hit the computer and wrote my poem, to the tune of "The Night before Christmas". This shows some of what I did and pics of my fabric storage area.

Date: 1/1/13 7:19 PM Thank you so much. What you see for the most part is a "back room" I call the fabric room where I have those big Home Depot storage shelves filled with fabrics and books. The white shelf with all the antique canning jars is in the actual sewing room. Left to organize is my "sewing closet" the big closet that connects the two spaces. I was going to hit that today but the flu bug got the best of me. It will have to wait until next weekend.Thanks for all the compliments. ------ http://lasewist.blogspot.com/ |
