The metal basket is also a gift..it held various teas from a local tea shop and now holds special buttons. Replacement buttons...the perfect place to look in an emergency!! Don't you just love the scallops, they add such a lovely touch and the embossed top!! Sooo pretty!
A treasured gift from a very sweet elderly lady.
This is a collection of French Country fabrics I have been collecting...along with a red Japanese print (more Japanese underneath)!
I use this basket to store my favorites...waiting on just the right pattern and project.
Did you notice my LOLLIPOP!! This is by Laurie of Lollipop Binding.
I purchased this one at one of her first Quilt Shows to show off her new product. I don't know that I'll ever use it, as it's one of her first ORIGINALS!! She now has a website and has added more adorable ideas to her line of "goodies".
Her story is wonderful..
She started out making Quilts for Soldiers overseas..and in a group effort...she had them working on different areas...one was rolling the cut binding. She looked down at the table of rolled up binding..and VOILA!!!
The light came on..THESE LOOK LIKE LOLLIPOPS!!!
and they are the cutest...I love mine. With the real lollipop stick!
Her design has gotten more colorful...but I'm glad I have this one. I love the story behind it and having met her..she is a very sweet person.
Little touches of HAPPINESS and INSPIRATION in your sewing room can do wonders!
Do you have special TREASURE in your sewing room...little touches of HAPPINESS!
Life is a little bit sweeter, when touched with kindness and beauty!
Happy Crafting!

Hi Hope! I hopped over here to see if I could find that recipe for homemade granola bars you posted awhile back. I saw you have some new posts. I love your sewing room. Right now my sewing room is also the stamp room, school room, guest room and junk room! Not so pretty to look at, but maybe some day! We miss you all and think of you and church members often!
HOPE, I have not been here for awhile... I am just BLOWN AWAY by your blog changes... all the projects on the side, your expert photography--all of it! That is ONE FAT CAT!! I thought I remembered seeing him from older pics of when you visited family. You had taken Gus with you and they were not the best of friends...
Your sewing room is gorgeous--beautiful! I'm inspired to get off my duff and make mine look a bit prettier... right now I have so much strung all over the room...
sending you an e-mail to inquire about purchasing some sock monkeys and coffee cup warmers.
have a great day!
