I am currently reorganizing our study where my sewing, knitting and spinning lives into a creative space where my 4 and 7 year old can make stuff too. There is nothing as necessary for creative thought as a good clear out!

I didn't know about tucking knots into layers so I'm happy you mentioned that. Your new quilt top is really fun, it's colourful and as you pointed out there's some really fun fabrics in it. Love the photo of it hung over the chair. Enjoy the rest of your cleaning, my room is due for a mega clean out too!!
