Over a year ago, I was contacted by Christelle Beneytout, a French author who was working on a book about sewing rooms in the home. I was beyond flattered that Christelle wanted to include my sewing corner in her book. She thought it was well organized and liked its vintage style. So I sent her a photo of it and before long, she requested more pictures of my studio. Her book, titled Ateliers et Coins Couture, was published in November. Last week, a copy of the book arrived from France. I was so surprised to see my studio featured on six pages!
I love the book's layout. And even though I don't speak French, from cover to cover, I can tell that it has wonderful ideas for creative sewing spaces. Fortunately, my niece is fluent in French and kindly offered to translate my pages for me. I can't wait to hear what Christelle had to say about my studio!

That is fantastic and the pictures make your fab studio look even more amazing. I need to cheer up the family chill room where I do my crafting, but is a bit tricky when you have the family computer and filing system, which I need, plus my husband's guitars. Perhaps I should think about some lovely fabric to cover up the knee space on my desk, which luckily is quite big. Oh my Susan, you can see now why I like to blog because CAN I talk and perhaps this is the kind of stuff I should be putting ON my blog?!!!! As always, thanks you for continual inspiration.xxx
