My Dream Fabric Cupboard

It has now been over six months since the extension started.  Hopefully only a month or so to go – I can’t wait to have my life back.

My dream was to have a walk in cupboard to store my fabric rather than have it scattered in boxes and drawers all over the place.  And now my dream has become a reality.  It got fitted out to my specifications this week and it is exactly how I imagined it would be. 

I promise I will post a picture once the extension is finished and I have my fabric in there.

  

Also I received a box of treats from Kathy of Tamarack Shack in our latest exchange.  I think I was royally spoilt - especially with the hand made bag she included.

The Extension

This is why I have not posted for over a month - we are doing an upstairs extension.  I am still quilting, and taking pictures of my work, but the stress and time devoted to the extension has meant I have neglected my blog for way too long.

I am very excited.  The room in the middle upstairs will be for my personal sewing and will be open, light filled with lovely views of the city in the distance.  The best bit is that I will have a walk-in cupboard lined with shelves just for my fabric stash. So all my fabric will be in one place rather than scattered in drawers and boxes all over the house.  Have I mentioned I am excited????

This is the picture of the house before the extension started back in mid February.

Until about two weeks ago, when the roof tiles and guttering was put on the roof of the lower level, I have been living under tarps of different configurations as the extension moved though the sub floor and frame stages.  

Progress is going well, and so far I am very happy with the builder.  But I can’t wait until it is finished and I can have my normal life back again.

Although I may be a bit slower in posting, I will keep on showing some of the beautiful quilts I am lucky and honoured to be entrusted with.  I have several posts lined up over the next few days – so stay tuned……
