A Day of Shopping

Today I went shopping to Ikea! I really love that place, even if you don't buy anything it is a fun place. The intent was to buy a new piece of furniture for my studio. Which I did. Here it is.It will act as my cutting table/storage area. I can't wait to assemble it and put it up. Now I only have to clean out the old area first! While at Ikea, I also stopped in the textiles area and found this really groovy fabric. I love, love, love it!! Maybe use it as a backing on a quilt.That's all for now, short post today!

I wanted that piece for my new studio as well, but the thought of putting it together was a little intimidating for me. For the same cost I got an unfinished kitchen island that is about the same size. Let me know how that piece works for you.

We will be heading to IKEA in a couple weeks after we move into our new condo. I can't wait!

I've looked at that piece as well. For the same reason. I can't wait to hear how it works out for you.

Wow -- that piece is so cool! I've never been to an Ikea -- I'm thinking I'm missing an awful lot!

oh yes - do let us now how you get on with that. My friend has one in her kitchen and it looks great - do you know I never thought of it for a studio - but it is just perfect. Reminds me of those many tiny drawered pieces they used to have in haberdasheries way back when...perfect. Love that fabric too.
Hmm, do I feel an ikea trip coming on???

Like everyone else... I've been eyeing that piece too! Well... I eye EVERYTHING in Ikea, but especially that piece.

Love the textiles at Ikea too. I've used some to make curtains and it's some of the best fabrics I've ever sewn with.
