    Enjoy unpacking, see all of those projects that you are itching to stitch again! What a great room for crafts, my stuff is tucked away here and there throughout our home. I do take a basket of projects to work on in the family room, tv and Mr. Wonderful are there in the evenings.
    So happy that you had such a lovely Christmas with your family. Thank you for the flosstube!❤❤❤

    They have so many beautiful yarns now…. Just like cross stitch from the 80’s to the wonderful designers we have.
    I’m glad all are now recovering.

    Your new home looks lovely, Holly. We recently downsized from a 4-bed, 3-bath home to a 2-bed, 2-bath condo with a loft above the kitchen. I chose the loft for my sewing room. Believe me when I say I unloaded a LOT of fabric and notions, including my longarm, to the guild in our previous city! Do I still have too much stash? YES. However, I have a similar long closet in the eaves (unfortunately I have to get on my knees to get to the back), but it holds a lot! I made sure the things I wanted to access the most were up front. I struggled with lighting where my cutting table is, so I had a series of track lights installed on the vaulted part of the ceiling pointing toward the cutting table. When I look at your room I think you might also struggle with lighting in that back portion of the room, but hopefully the extra lighting will help. Other than that, I envy the amount of wall space you have and I think you'll be very happy in your new space! Hugs, Candace

Have so much fun at the Attic -someday I may make it there... LOL For now lots of stitching as we keep an eye on the fires - Thankful that the Hurst Fire has not moved north toward us and that my family & friends that have been evacuated are safe and their homes are still standing.🙏🙏

    It’s good seeing you sooner than expected. I retired and a few months later I bought a manufactured home which was bigger than any space I had had in a long time. People wondered why I bought something so big for just me. However, I finally got a craft room. I took the closet which was a decent size and had one of those closet places come in and install shelves. It’s amazing how much stuff you can get in an area if you stop and study it. The closet isn’t large but with some thought, I got a lot of crafting and stitchy things in it. You can do this! I lived in an apartment that had a closet under the stairs very similar to yours by your stairs. When I moved from there I was amazed at all the things I had managed to pack away in there. It was pretty amazing. So my opinion is you are going to have more space than you think. It’s just different than what you are used to. Let us all know. Your house looks lovely. And you can always plant trees. This was my last move. I dislike moving but I love where I’m at now. Good luck and have fun setting everything up.

    Best of luck with moving. I just moved to a new city the weekend after Christmas. Like you said, packing is a drag, but unpacking is much more fun! You've left out some beautiful projects to work on until you unpack the rest of your stash and wips. Being close to grandchildren makes it all worthwhile.

    What a TREAT to see you today! Happy to hear all about your move to that beautiful home near the grands - that daughter must be THRILLED! Ruby doesn’t know it yet, but I think she is going to be the HAPPIEST girl in the world to be able to just skip along to Gigi and Pops house! Graham will love it too!🥰. Relieved to know the surgeries went smoothly - hope the son-in-law gets his pain issue fixed…it stinks to be in pain all the time. I look forward to hearing ALL about The Attic experience! Until the next video, I will pray for the move is as painless as possible 🙃 and you have LOTS OF FUN creating your new craft space! That new kitchen of yours is just beautiful! Happy New Year lovely lady - see you next time! (I am still chuckling over your 2004 vs 2024 boo-boo 😎 on your Holly sampler…I would be known to do the same exact thing!🤷🏻‍♀️🥰)

    We moved in May of this year after living in our last house for 27 years. My scrapbook room took over 50 3x3 cube boxes to get everything packed. I’m still moving things around in my new room but it;s coming together. I am about the same age as you and I agree, this is the LAST move - it’s hard work!

    We opened up a space under our staircase, we use it for Christmas stuff storage plus grandkids have used it as a special hiding spot. You might ask your builder if that’s a possibility in your basement .

    @rebeccahayes9206 2 дня назад

    Thank you so much for sharing your moving journey with us! It is especially meaningful to me because my husband and I are having to move for work and have chosen to downsize since we have empty nested. I am encouraged by your faith and positivity! It is physically and emotionally tiring but we can do this! I am excited to see your newly arranged craft space.

  • @cathyberry7219
    @cathyberry7219 21 час назад

    Welcome back Holly. It was great to hear from you. In 2017 we remolded our home and had to pack and move so much stuff, it was work out the end result was wonderful. My husband jokes now that when the time comes to downsize we will sell the house as is furniture and all the other stuff is included in the price. He does not want to pack and unpack again. I just laughed and told he will miss his stuff however my stuff is going with me. You probably have more space than realize and hopefully everything will have a home. Praying your move goes smoothly. I am so thankful that Graham is doing well and was able to be with family for Christmas. Have a blessed day.

    Loved seeing your new space. My husband and I recently moved and my crafting room is smaller than the one I had before so I had to downsize as well. However, new spaces are definitely fun. Good luck on your move and can't wait to see your next Flosstube. God Bless!!

    Oh I am so happy to hear that Graham had a good Christmas celebrating with his family. I know you loved it also. Good luck on the move. I love the closet area. My first thought when you opened the door was a great play area for the grandkiddos also. We downsized a few years ago so I feel your pain and wish you luck. Excited to hear you will be at the Attic next week. I’d love to spend some time with you. 😊

Glad to hear your family is doing well after their surgeries and praying for answers for your son in law! So sorry to hear of your loss and praying for Payton as well! Love seeing your new place! I've finally been able to sit down and do some stitching after all the crafting of gifts and things with my daycare kids for Christmas and New Year's! I just finished two more letters on one of my WIPs and hope to be able to completely finish it soon. I was able to get two new patters and kit up another new pattern with some Christmas money so I am excited to finish this one and start one of those new ones! Hope your move goes well!

I know you will love having the grands right in your back yard! I was saddened to hear of the little boy who passed away, so sad. I am excited for you moving into a new home! I’ll look forward to hearing and seeing your new home once you are settled! It is a huge task, but you will be glad you did it now! Your new space will be lovely, and it looks like you will be very organized with lots of storage! Your finishes are so pretty, and I love your progress on PUB! Have fun at Sampler Symposium, I wish I could be there!

    Lovely to catch up again and see the knitting and stitching that hasn’t been packed. Enjoy your break away before your move. Wondering if a sliding door to the wardrobe would help with giving you more space and maybe with both doors open some natural light. Just a thought. Before New Year Covid came visiting and it’s unbalanced my asthma so taking time to come right with that. My sewing area is getting some things sorted and looking forward to some sewing time soon. Best wishes for your move and looking forward to seeing how you do set your sewing/stitching space.

    Blessings wished for a smooth and easy move! Moving is no joke! I moved from a 3700square ft house -1000 of that was my crafty room. We wanted to downsize. My current house is 2200 sq Ft and my craft room is a maybe 10 x 8 ft room.😢 I gave up so much but I’m ok with it now. I hate it but oh well- at least I have a small room. Your new room and space looks great! Thank you for sharing!

    How exciting! I would trade trees and space for grands any day! So glad Graham is doing well and could enjoy the holiday! I will be praying for all of your family. Once we had 10 major surgeries for 3 out of 4 of us in a 10 month time. I definitely feel for you all. On another note, if you are putting your cutting table against a wall consider putting it on wheels that you can lock. Then if you need to cut a large backing or trim a quilt you can easily unlock the wheels with a foot and roll it out away from the wall a little. It would help make things so much easier. Mine used to be against the wall and I constantly ran into frustration not being able to spread out fabric far enough. I now have rearranged my room with the cutting table in the middle but if I ever have to go back to having it by the wall I would definitely put it on the wheels. Happy packing!
