How We Adapt

This adaptation is a good one. I'm amazed at how quickly I'm adapting to the new studio. I've already switched some things around; moved Ellie to the end of DW and put the bobbin winder table at the end of the pressing table. I need something to keep all my tools and Ellies sewing table wasn't cutting it. 

DW and I are still coming to terms with his leveling situation. The humid air is making the floor fluctuate. 

Jim and I were able to get the returns put onto the big sewing table last night and he's working on getting the coat rack made as well as the trim pieces cut to put on the wall to hang the quilts on. All after he mowed the entire lawn last night.

I'll be working on Linda's quilt most of today, and even possibly tomorrow, but here's what's on Bernie when I'm done with that... 

Rae's beautiful top
I like having a top loaded while I'm working on another one; it gives me time to ponder what should go into it.

Two calls yesterday; one new customer coming to drop off on Friday and another wondering if I was still open (it was nearly 4:00). Open? Yes, she said. She wanted to go to a smaller quilt shop. No, it clearly states in my Google bio and my web site I'm not a quilt shop. She saw fabric in one of my pics and assumed I was a quilt shop. Do I sell backing? No, I'm not a quilt shop. Just a long armer. Ugh!

Maybe I need to modify my web site? At any case, it's a dreary day today so I'll have all the lights in the studio on. It's so bright and cheery in there with the sunshine or with the lights. Loving my new creation place!
