My Studio

I have this amazing space for my studio. I think it is about the size of our 2-car garage. It isn't a refurbished garage but originally a 'rumpus room' in this early-1970s house.

Rumpus? As in noisy, uproar, din? Not any more. Now there are the quiet sounds of thinking, creating, dreaming. There are the sounds of shears cutting through fabric, needles being threaded, the gentle laughter of fairies and whispers of dolls.

Fitting a prototype

The only rumpus comes from a sudden burst of steam from the iron. Or the roar of the serger, when I am working briskly.
