The house move to Wales went very very well. Even Nell (the rescue cat who still hasn't really settled down after 5 years living with us!) survived the 4 hour car journey :) Here she was on Morning #1. She's a 'city cat' so goodness knows what she'll make of the cows, badgers and rabbits when we let her out:
It's only been 3 days and we have hundreds! a lot of boxes to still unpack but we made a great start in my Quilting Room yesterday thanks to both Mums, DH and my little big sister:
It's a very different space to this fabby room I left behind in London:
... and a bit smaller so I will have to be ruthless with some of my old stuff if I want my new creative space to be both pretty AND usable. Hmmmm, now that could be tricky for me ...
I am very envious - a beautiful looking house in Wales and a not-too-tiny sewing space. Lovely. Good luck with the unpacking!
ReplyDeleteThe sewing space looks like it will be lovely and cozy.

I'm sure everyone was relieved when the four-hour long drive finally came to an end. The whole day was probably spent with everyone unpacking the boxes. Anyway, the quilting room looks spacious and cozy, Glinda. I'm sure you'll be making a lot of beautiful creations in it. Thanks for keeping us posted! All the best to you! :)
