Looking back, I notice that the post where I said I was making a Makery was dated 1st April, so you might have thought it was an April fools joke.
But really I was quite serious. I was gong to show it when it’s finished but, today, I decided to share a glimpse. Yesterday I did a marathon organising and now the top drawer of my desk makes me smile every time I open it :)

some beautiful vintage threads, which I was very lucky to receive recently |

and a start on the buttons |
Happy Sewing!

Oh the threads.. the threads… And how do you stop the bobbins from trying to unroll and knot together… It may be an obscure mating ritual… happy Makery!

I love vintage bobbins of thread. I bought a few boxes on eBay last year, all in good condition. I love seeing photos of crafting rooms so hurry up with the Makery!

That first pic looks like a poster – would be perfect for my wall!!! I have my threads sorted by make, it's a ridiculous OCD as I much prefer looking at them by colour, but such is life (buttons are by colour: half s dozen large glass jars; red, blue, green, yellow, pink&purple, brown&black and White! I think I need to put more effort into keeping a clear work space and less into obsessing about threads and buttons !!!!
