Studio Changes

I finally decided to give in and to just let him in. Who you might ask; well the little guy, that keeps tapping at my studio door and rewards me with AMAZING hugs and kisses. My son Miles just turned fifteen months yesterday, and over the long weekend I decided to change the layout of my studio to better include him into my workspace.

I have been pondering over what I needed to do to improve my workflow for Crafted Spaces and Verona Collections, while taking care of Miles. I originally wanted to keep the room separate for organizational and safety reasons; however, it just was not working. I was not getting as much work done as I would have liked and things were getting very disorganized.

I started off by moving my worktable and anything that he could get into. I created a second work area downstairs, where cutting and craft projects will occur. My main studio is therefore clear of clutter and most of my fabric is tucked away. There are no ribbons and other notions for baby to get into and he can take his naps and play with some legroom to spear.

I love the new layout, which is now dedicated to working on my computer and sewing. Baby also seems happier for it, which is VERY important. Let me know what you think. I still have some additional touches to make, which I'll feature in later posts.
