2020 31 Day Blog Writing Challenge - Day Eighteen - 'If I Could Sew With...'

Who I really would like to sew with is my craft/sewing/quilting buddies AKA 'The Krafty Techs Guild'...but this blasted COVID virus is getting in the way. (Bad, Bad Virus...go away!) This is mostly the same ladies that go on the So Cal Quilter's Run together. I worked with two of the ladies who ended up working with another of the ladies and a couple of them are in a Dungeons and Dragons club and that is where some of the other members came from! There is one member who moved out of state that we miss a lot. Another just retired to Arizona which will make it a bit more difficult to all meet. Sigh.

We had a good thing going. We would meet usually monthly at one of the ladies' house. She inherited her childhood home when her Dad passed and remodeled it heavily to suit her needs...First she evicted all of the yard implements and other stuff normally in a garage to the back shed. Then she had the garage outfitted for a craft studio! She has a large table in the center where all of us could set up our machines and an industrial level power bar for us to plug into that comes down to the table from the ceiling. On nice days, we could raise the garage door and have a nice breeze and fresh air since she is kinda close to the ocean. All of the light colored furniture is on wheels so she can move stuff around to suit her whim and how many crafters are enjoying the area. We would have lunch on her patio and snacks on the kitchen counter. Her sister would make us tea.

Here is a view of the side of the studio...the piano did not fit anywhere else in the house, so it lives in the studio! Note the shiny floor - it was epoxy coated!


Here is a view towards the back of the studio...she later had a sliding door put in so there is cross ventilation. In this picture the lady in the back is beading, a couple of us are sewing and the gal that is standing is designing a CosPlay outfit for ComicCon. 

Here is the industrial power supply coming down from the ceiling.

This is one of my setups. I was sewing the 'Chicks in Red Shoes' at this craft day.

She has the neatest showers in her bathrooms. This is one...
And this is another..



And her kitchen floor is splendid too!
