It’s (almost) done.
For more than two weeks I have not been sewing one single stitch. I dedicated every single minute of my free time to get my sewing room emptied, cleaned, new furniture assembled, and my sewing stuff reorganized.

Thanks so much for your help so far, Papa!!!
Paradise is not far off after all, it’s located in our basement!
Happy Sewing!
