Next thursday Nadine is coming over from Belgium to Norway to visit me. Please go over to her blog and read the story she have posted. I'm so looking forward to meet her. She is a blogfriend I "met" some time ago. We have never met in person, just via mail and now we are chatting on msn. I know we'll have a great time together. And one time during her visit we have invited Hanne, Laila, Anne Ida and some other friends for a little sewingtogether.But what about my sewingroom.......it's a complete mess......again. By christmas it was so tidy and clean...........now a total mess. And now Nadine is comming for an inspection. I have to do someting about it.
There are several bloggers that have showed their sewingtables and what's on it.
And what's on mine:My belowed sewingmachine
a lot of threads and bobbins
Tilda box filled with thread
A CAT BASKET hehehe
several scissors
rotary cutter
my rotarycutter mat
bindings from last project
fabrics, fabrics, fabrics and more fabrics
A BLACK CAT (you know Frida loves to sit on my sewingtable)
batting
a lot of different rulers
my otlight lamp (can't live without it)
more boxes (can't get enought of boxes)
patterns from projects I plan to do now
And not to mention all the cathair hehehe
So....what's on your sewing table. Is it more messy than mine hehehe.
So tomorrow I start cleaning my sewingroom so Nadine will not be too chocked when she enter into it.

How exciting for you and Nadine to meet in person. But I agree I think you will have to organize your sewing room a little :)
Looks like you had the best seat in the car, with all that fabric! You will have a great time when Nadine comes to stay, blog friends are the best.

You look comfortable. I think my mess tops yours, I posted pictures of my mess today.
You look so happy thee with all that fabric. A messy sewing room?? It could only mean a busy lady.
I love the look of your sewing room. Isn't that the way they are suppose to look? Remember we have to get those WISPS done.
Well, I need to report that I have finished 5 now. Which includes my TB club quilt from 06. A friend quilted it for me but I finished the binding. Have pictures in my blog.
Have a good time with Nadine. It's so much fun to meet these friends we talk to in our blogs.
I am so excited for you and Nadine. I can hardly wait for her to arrive at your home. Frida is looking out the window, anticipating Nadine's arrival. :-)
I am so much looking forward to meet Nadine and spend time with you guys :-)
Ooops - I have to finish my toiletry bag, several NI blocks and and and ......... before next week. If you see smoke from a distance it is only me, sewing up a storm :-) I will also have a sewing / blog friend, Wenche O., staying from Thursday to Saturday. Oh, busy pleasure :-)
Good luck with the clean up! I always tend to get distracted with looking at fabrics i forgot that i had..
How lucky to finally meet a blogging friend. Makes it so more personal, can't wait to hear about it all.
I know how u feel....13 days till Anne Idas visit!! Im sure u will both have a fantastic time!
How exciting for you both! I love messy sewingrooms...that means there is craftswork going on
You look comfortable among the fabric. Have a great visit with Nadine!
Hi May, I'm glad I'm not the only one who has a cre8tive mess in their sewing room!!! (Like the quotes - I,m creative, you can't expect me to be neat too & I'm not messy, I'm creative :) I always start of with good intentions of being neat and tidy but that flys out the window every time. Looking forward to hearing of your great time you will have with Nadine.
Take care & have fun, kind regards from Liz.
I think having a mess is a sign of being creative :)
What is the lovely big fat roll of fabric on your cutting mat ?
How exciting about your visit from Nadine. I hope you have a great time. I've always thought cats were standard equipment on a sewing table, and yours is exceptional!
Have a wonderful time with Nadine. I just posted another January finish - a big two for me but they were fun and I am so happy to have some new things to hang.
It would be fun to look around in your sewing room....and dig, and ooh, and ahhh, I just love it! Mine is all cleaned up for a change and I can't find a thing! LOL...isn't that the way of it? Enjoy your visit with Nadine.
Oh what a wonderful visit to look forward to! Enjoy the cleaning.
Hi May!
We have the same model Janome and I love mine too. I guess I am going to have to show my room, but my cutting table has been taken over by my two daughters and their machines (both Janome), but we do have our fun times sewing together.
Oh have a wonderful wonderful time! That picture of you in the car is too funny!
Please tell me the fabric that's in a bundle on your table? It's pink and lights. I love that line.
I love the quilt you finished of Leannes'. Love your blog.
