It's not going to fit

Well I've spent nearly a week moving things from the garargio into the new studio and I've come to the conclusion that there is no way even half of it is going to fit. All I can do is move the stuff I use the most and leave the less used stuff out in the garargio along with the finished quilts, backing fabrics, other fabrics, batting and more general sewing odds and ends. This is about a third of the fabric stash and you can't really see where its come from. So rather than moving the studio I think I've just acquired another one :]

junk junkie

Just been across the road at the school to vote and it looks like lots of people have taken advantage of the day to have garage sales around here. I bought a big cardboard box full of quilt fabric for $10 (like I really need more fabric :]) but I sure wasn't going to pass it up at that price. Some bits more useful than others. Rather a nice bit of batik style with gold printing. Bought a few other bits and bobs (non quilty) and a VCR for $5 that she assured me worked the last time it was used. Haven't tried it yet. Boy I'm a sucker for other peoples junk :]
Yesterday afternoon was spent screen printing. No, nothing very arty I'm sorry. Just dozens of the fabric labels I use in my business. It was getting a bit warm and the ink was drying in the screen but I'd run out so I needed to do it.
