My creative space...

Creative cutlery

Now that the quilt project is out of the space, I'm all systems go, go, go for the house move & for a couple of markets too.

So in the space today there are still more circles, my trusty fade out marker, vintage barkcloth & the good scissors (dropped once too often & now not working too well).

Don't forget to pop in and add your link if you're playing along this week.

I was all ready to leave a comment about no red in your space but smiled when I saw that some has still found its way in! Looking forward to seeing what all these circles will magically become...

Lauren - owlet said...

Oooh I'm excited for you about the move! Its busy market time here too. Enjoy your circles. I see the knife and fork there too, so I suppose you are still thinking about those vinyl shades...

Guest said...

I bet you are so excited about moving into your new home!!! What a fun time for you and yours!!!

Kate said...

I love that feeling of endless possibilities when an enormous project is finished. Good luck for the house move and the market preps.

Great to hear you're doing things for you and the family after such a big project for the community. Enjoy!

Tracey said...

hope the markets and move go well!  What type of fade our marker do you use?  Mine does not 'fade" so well...

Amanda said...

The Quilt is amazing...But yay for freeing up time for more crafty goodness and exciting move times. :)

Ivy said...

Good luck with your move, Kirsty! And I'm so curious what the fabric circles are for...I guess I'll have to wait and see :)

Sally said...

Wow - you sound really really busy!
I have that marker too... it is wonderful.

jeanamarie said...

I hope your move goes well - that all the excitement of a new home and decorating evaporates all the stressful bit :)

Tania said...

You are the MultiTasker Queen - in more ways than one. Most people would just get their heads around MOVING (though at least you don't need a moving van), but nope, you just couldn't resist throwing in a market or two...

beck said...

Wow, moving house, Hope it all goes well, I love that feeling of a new beginning. Thanks for providing this space every Thursday, I really enjoy looking into other peoples creative worlds xo

The quilt is amazing! Did I say that already? Well, it deserves a second saying, for sure. Best of luck with the move and markets. :)

Guest said...

Kirsty, I'm starting to get the impression that you are rather partial to a circle or two. I know, I'm very astute :)

I hope the move goes smoothly! I find packing tedious, but unpacking is like opening lots of presents! Especially if someone else (ie my husband) packed most of the boxes. Ahem. 

Anonymous said...

I have got to get myself one of those handy dandy fade out markers!

Kellie said...

First of all, congrats on the quilt project. it looked amazing and the presentation was so clever!
Second, good luck with the move. What wonderful excitemento be in your new home soon!

Ooty said...

Best of luck for smooth and welcoming move!!!

Selina said...

love that vintage barkcloth. good luck with your move too.

Kylie said...

Loving that barkcloth, Kirsty! Also intrigued by the fade out marker... sounds like something I could use. Could I buy it at Lincraft or do I need to go to a specialty quilting store or something? Anyway... good luck with the move and the markets! K

I love moving house. Strange but true. Having a big clean out. Starting with a blank canvas. Finding a new place for everything. . .

Pam - Pippi creates said...

Hmmm, intriguing space this week. Good luck with the move.

Neen said...

Your quilt project turned out so beautifully you must be so proud. And now that little baby has been put to bed and you already have new seeds flourishing.  Can't wait to see what the mysterious circles manifest into.

Jess said...

I wonder if those circles have anything to do with the ugly placemats?

The finished quilt was amazing and must have been sp rewarding for you, but I am glad you have time for you now.

Good luck on the move (we just moved, too...crazy times...and we're still waiting for our house to be built, so we'll be moving again - but then - I'll have a art room!!!)...anyways - good luck to YOU on the move, and the red quilt is AMAZING. man...it makes me want to do one! I'm just sad that I didn't get in on the action.

Thanks for sharing your creative space, quilt, and inspiration. :)

I only wish I were as creative!!! I can follow patterns but I need to think outside the box!

laura said...

I wish I had a creative brain!! Why don't I think of fun stuff like this??!!

Amberbop said...

I will sit here in my creative space and wildly covet that fade out marker in yours.
