We had an Ikea base kitchen cabinet delivered to us, added four locking casters and a plywood top. A layer of batting and heavier home dec fabric finished off the top. It is important to ensure the fabric cover can be changed so right now the plywood is just sitting on the cabinet.
The height at almost 36" is a perfect working height for me.
The little folding ironing table near the sewing machine also got a new cover to match.
I have (finally) started to quilt the 2012 Craftsy Block of the Month. As a follow up, Craftsy offered a Leah Day class to quilt the top. I am really enjoying the class and learning some new FMQ'ing designs.
Lastly, a picture of our strange winter. Last weekend the ice houses were pulled off the ice due to the warm temperatures. This next weekend record breaking low temps are forecasted. I love New Hampshire.

You've been busy, Kathy!
ReplyDeleteCute pouch! And what a lovely sewing space you have. Having a nice cutting/pressing area can make life so much easier. Enjoy!
What a fantastic new pressing station! Love the fabric you picked for the top. Great peek into your sewing room. The looking good, love the fabric that you pick here too! TFS.
ReplyDeleteI am not loving the bitter cold. Just basted two quilts with flannel backing! I cannot wait to buy a house only to have a sewing room :) Might have to steal this idea, love it.
ReplyDeleteYour quilting is beautiful. And I really like your cutting/pressing station. I have been dreaming up a new table for my new room.
