Another Found Treasure

Here's another gorgeous piece of fabric that I also bought last year for the hobby coat pattern. I think I like it better than the first one.

Hobby_coat_fabric_2Today I'm going to work really hard to finish organizing the sewing room so that I can get to work sewing some of this wonderful fabric I've bought. I don't believe the adage that she who dies with the most fabric wins. I think it's more like, "She who dies with the most fabric leaves a confused husband." What would Vann do with all this stuff? Well, I know what he'd do. Not one himself for "ridding out," as my first mother-in-law used to call it, he'd let it be just as it is until he too passed. Then the kids would have to step in and get rid of all my stuff and his. Then all my beautiful fabric will all end up at the Goodwill. I'd rather sew it myself.

I like this fabric better, too. The overall pattern of the other one might be great in a quilt but not so great as a wearable. You have given me an idea--a hobby coat--I could hang it up on my studio door and wear it when I'm in the room--kind of like a uniform, or lab coat. I wonder if it would stimulate my creative juices when I put it on?? Wouldn't that be nice....

Pretty choice! If you get some pictures of your newly organized sewing room, it would be terrific to see them! I need ideas for organizing my sewing room.
