Kristin, your Just a Minute series is a great idea and well worth your time and effort to produce. Looking forward to more about your studio as the work progresses from beginning to completion. Also looking forward to the other topics you mention.
Thanks Judy! I’m hoping to have lots of progress to share soon (patience is not my strong suit… lol) but I’m sure I can come up with lots of tips and other fun stuff in between updates! Stay tuned…
I love it! I’ve been following your building progress on Facebook and I’m so excited for you to be able to have this amazing size room! It’ll look awesome when you add your own touches! Love the video minutes, will definitely be tuning in. I mean who doesn’t have just a minute to spare, right? 🙂
My thoughts exactly Tari! It’s amazing how fast the minute flies by when you’re recording though… good thing I talk fast! 😉
Just a minute. .. is a great idea. I enjoyed watching the video and seeing how the project is going. Keep up the great work!
Thanks Jeanne!! Baby steps, right? 🙂
It looks like you are building your dream studio! Photos as you go please. Kathy O
I’m working on it Kathy … slowly but surely!! In case you’re interested, I’ve been posting photos from the beginning here: http://matildajo.com/studio-matilda/ 🙂
It looks like it’s going to be a great room Kristin. Lucky you! I think it is a fun idea to share your videos of the progress of this project. We can all dream along with you. What girl wouldn’t want her own sewing room, right? Good luck on your new space. 🙂
Thanks Kelly… I’m antsy to get it done! 🙂
Can’t wait to see the finished product! Please post progress one-minute videos for us. Also, thanks for the Freebie Friday pattern. So kind of you!
Will do Dianne… I’m planning to dedicate at least one video a month to those updates… more if things get moving more quickly. And you’re welcome… if you sew up a towel, I’d love to see it! 🙂
I too live in Lewistown,MT and wouldn’t trade it for ILL ever again. kosterby@yahoo.com
Hi Kathy! Small world… we really need to actually “meet” someday! 🙂
