The fabled sewing room

So, there is a room with a sewing machine in it, and a whole lot of fabric and other related items in it. Unfortunately, it also has boxes and boxes of other stuff in it, too. Sorting it all out is going to take a while.

Here it is on Tuesday, the day after the move.


Here's the sewing machine (although I have to admit that it's not actually plugged in yet):

It was my mom's - I think it's a Janome MemoryCraft 4800.

What you can't see in that picture is the rest of the mess on the table:

It could be worse, I guess - but I still haven't figured out what I'm going to do with all those big flat boxes. The movers did a really good job with all this stuff - what they did was wrap the particleboard furniture in big pieces of plastic - you can see some of it around the little cabinet at the bottom. (It was full of thread and things, too, so it's good that they wrapped it up tight!)

Oh, I have not said that we are finally (finally!) moving next month. And I will finally have my sewing room! Hooray!
