of the future...
We are moving house later this year. Plans are well underway for an extension and a renovation (that our little family will have the pleasure of living through!) And I am very excited about my new 'creative space' that is in the plans (above pic may be difficult to inperpret, unless you are me and spend A LOT of time staring at this little line drawing - The grey shaded bit in inside the house, you can see the windows opening to the outside. My creative space of the future is really just a length of desk, but imagine the possibilities!).
It will have nice big windows overlooking our backyard. Particularly looking out at an existing White Cedar (scientific name Melia azedarach - Persian Lilac) and the rest of a lush garden (that will be there eventually). But at the moment it just looks like this - a tree (a nice one at that) and some grass.
It is amazing the excitment I have for imagining what this little corner of my life will be like. It's a while down the track to reality, but the dreaming is fun!On a more practical level, this is what I am working on at the moment. Finishing off a cool breezy summer top I started last year (not much of a need for it this time of year, but hopefully I will have finished it before next summer...)

ReplyDeletewow what a dream. that is a fabulous canvas of a backyard that you have there. your tree is a beauty
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing tree that you will be able to look out on and how fantastic you get to plan your creative space from the plan! Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteOh, no need to explain. Every time I've had a chance to change or redo my creative space, I've spent HOURS sketching, daydreaming, sorting. It's an important space, after all! Yours looks very promising.
ReplyDeleteYour top looks great! Good luck with your exciting house plans :) K
ReplyDeleteOh you lucky bugger! Having just lost my space I am dreaming of a day when I may get it (wherever "it" may be) back! Enjoy the dreaming part - sometimes that's the best bit!
ReplyDeleteHey and nice fabric in the top. I just ordered a pattern for a summer top to make with fabric I bought last winter ... one of these days!
I spy with my little eye fruit trees and sunflowers and vegies and strawberries and a grape vine and a chook tractor and a tree to climb in and a hammock and...
