Day17 MOC6 Username
Knit, crochet, cross stitch, quilt,needlepoint,weave, spin, embroidery, sew, anything with thread and I’m doing it.
I love fabric,color and putting things together. For fun or for work.
My mother didn't sew but my aunt who lived next door had a sewing machine.
Starting with doll clothes and progressing to sewing my own clothes
when I was 11 years old and I then made it into a job.
After 38 years doing needlepoint finishing for a local shop
I retired last year. This is my sewing studio looking all cleaned up! Now I can
dig into that stash of fabrics I have been collecting.
Years ago there was a local yarn shop named Threadbenders. I loved
that name and wanted to use it but still make it my own. Jungle seemed
appropriate. There were definitely times when I felt lost in my jungle
of threads. I wasn't sure if I'd ever untangle all the threads I had going.
Awesome layout. I love that you have all these images of your studio and how your username supports your passion. Hope you're enjoying being retired and have found time to dig into your stash and create.
love your page here Threadjungle! Your journaling of your username is so neat. what a cool username to go with your passion. I understand that with the cross stitch DMC floss... I ended up using a tool thingy that guys put nuts and bolts in .. the plastic drawers in the plastic cabinet... I numbered the drawers and that is where the skeins are kept Awesome collection you have there. Congratulations on your retirement and I am glad it is now your time to play and do things for yourself. Love all the sewing notions you are using here... wonderful page!
