A TV shelf for my sewing corner

My husband is wonderful. He ordered this TV shelf & undershelf unit from Stacks and Stacks for me for Christmas. Marcy, a terrifically helpful S&S goddess, told me he came in with the above picture and looking lost. They didn't carry the item in the store so he bought a gift certificate and gave it to me. What a guy. He knows I love shelves. I traipsed over to S&S the day after Christmas and Marcy ordered the set for me. The corner unit came in pretty quickly but I just picked up the undershelf yesterday. And today I get to install it! Whoo Hoo! Think of the workspace I'll gain when I get my little TV up off the sewing table! Before I install it, though, I'm going to finish one of the bridesmaid tops--can't get too sidetracked from the alterations because I have no intention of staying up til 2 in the morning before the wedding doing stuff I could've done well before. After all, on Kim's big day I have to look, if not gorgeous, at least well-rested.

Cozy Purple Pop of Color

Cozy purple throws for snuggling!  Adds some color  to the living room.  Thick fleece trimmed straight with rounded corners.  I tried some overcast stitches with my Juki however I couldn't get the look I wanted so I pulled out my serger. Gosh it's been, like 2 years since I used it but luckily it worked (I've had it for quite awhile but I'm still kinda afraid of it 😜).

Crafty Stirrings

My sewing stuff has been packed up for quite awhile and I miss it! It was packed up to make room for a season of extended visits by family which we have truly enjoyed so it was a worthy trade-off. Family visits will be done in a few weeks and in the meantime we decided that we'll be moving into a different house a few weeks later, so my sewing and craft things (other than sewing-related stuff I have just a few jewelry-making and scrap-booking supplies) will remain packed until it's arranged in our new abode. Focusing on family and transition decisions has taken up my mental space so it's just now, as I begin creating the vision of our next home I'm looking forward to having a sewing space again.
