A little late here --- we were working the admissions table at Crosby Festival of the Arts yesterday and were exhausted after our four-hour shift!
This month's question is "Show us your stitching space! Where do you sit, and what is going on around you while you stitch (TV, audiobooks, etc)?"
My stitching space is my bed, I'm embarrassed to admit. I have my basic supplies in two storage cupboards in my crafting area (these photos are four years old and they are a lot more messy now):
This month's question is "Show us your stitching space! Where do you sit, and what is going on around you while you stitch (TV, audiobooks, etc)?"
My stitching space is my bed, I'm embarrassed to admit. I have my basic supplies in two storage cupboards in my crafting area (these photos are four years old and they are a lot more messy now):
But when I am working on a project, I take project bags with all supplies up to my bedroom (you see my project bag on the floor there next to my dresser in the photo on the left), move my Ott light over to the bedside and sit there while I stitch:
I wing the magnifier are of the lamp around so it is between me face and the fabric in my q-snaps or hoop and focus the light on the fabric. And I stitch...and rip... and swear sometimes!
As for what is going on around me when I stitch... at the foot of the bed is my television with the satellite hook-up and DVR and I tend to have it on while I stitch.

Sometimes, one or more cats are also on the bed... so I suspect that the odd cat hair ends up incorporated in my stitching, but I try to keep them at some distance from the floss (which one loves to chew on) and charts (which another loves to sit on)!
This area hasn't had a whole lot of stitching, however, since I broke my wrist last October. It is getting better and every once in a while I tell myself I'm going to get out a WIP and work on it but... my mojo isn't awake yet and I don't. Maybe this month?
