Starting Over........

Today I accomplished not much, but a lot. After working on my real house for a while, I decided that I needed to start from scratch on the table where I was working.


You saw it the other day after the gremlins dragged everything out of my workroom. This is what it looks like this afternoon.


I even cleaned out my tool bag! That part in itself is amazing.


After I did that I took all of the stuff that I had been working on for the haberdashery and started sorting. I have started filling the hutches and shelves. One hutch will be for shoes and the other one for shirts. BTW. None of the piles of shirts have sleeves or collars except on the top one. That way they fit in neater.

I did a display in the trunk and made socks to hang over the edge. I filled one of the other counters with fabric bolts for suits and sweaters. I think that I am most happy with the tie displays. I am definitely going to make more of the long ones to hang on the door of the shirt hutch. Those are the most fun to make.

Yes, I still have a ways to go, but now I feel like I will be able to get there soon. Now I can find what I need to finish. I need hats, a suit or two, long johns and some night shirts among other things.

Keep your fingers crossed. Maybe I can beat the gremlins and finish before they wake up and figure out what I have done.

See you tomorrow.
