My {new} Crafty Space & Stitch Magazine {Giveaway}

So yesterday... FINALLY... almost two months later I'm have my sewing/crafty space all unpacked and put back together. It feels good to not have to stare at the boxes and piles of things without homes. Now everytime I go in there I can just sew. At least for a while I'm sure piles will start to form they always do.  But here are some pictures of the space looking fabulous and in pristine condition.

Yesterday was also the arrival of my complimentary designer copies of the current issue Stitch magazine... of course I missed the UPS man for the third time and had to travel all the way to the south side to pick up my package but it was worth it! Anyway one copy is for me and one is for my mom so that means I have one copy up for grabs.

If you'd like a shot at it just be a follower and leave a comment and I'll pick someone at random next Tuesday, August 9, 2011 around Noon Chicago time. I'm not too big in the follower department so the odds of winning are pretty good! 

If you already bought this issue and you want to play anyway just mention in your comment that you already have it and if you win I'll send you something fun (probably fabric) and pick another name for the magazine. So there could be two winners!! 

New Apartment - Sweet Craft Room!

Finished

It has been almost 6 weeks since I posted anything and that is because I moved! I've been very busy setting up my new place and fighting with comcast about installing my internet. So not having internet has kept me away too! But finally with the arrival of my first visitors - my mom and my aunt... I got my place together and with the help of RCN I once again have internet.

But the most exciting part of my move, the reason I rented this apartment is the space I am using as my craft room! I couldn't be happier with the way it all worked out. I love every inch of it! But don't take my word for it, see for yourself:

My door desk!

Beads in salt-n-pepper shakers!

Love my built-ins!

A great home for my fabric stash!

My sewing table with a great view of a ginko tree!

My card catalog to organize all of my supplies!

All of the pictures of my craft room and the rest of my new place can be found in this set:
