I am SO excited to participate in the 4th Annual Where Bloggers Create 2012 blog party!! Hello to everyone around the world from here in Australia. Thank you Karen Valentine for being such a gracious host! You'll see below why I'm especially thrilled to participate in this, my first, blog party.
Welcome to my creative space that I share with
Coco and Channel (my wonderful little dogs)
----------------------------------------------------------
Here is where the Urban Rags line of clothing is made. I read a book recently from Stampington Publications called "Where Women Create". I absolutlely loved the stories and the workspaces that these people had created. When I found out about this party, I thought it would be nice to show all of you my workspace, which is in the process of being upgraded.
When I enter my space to work, I immediately feel like creating. I love the feeling of the "things" that surround me. The colours, the textures, and the idea that I have no idea what my garments will look like until I start.
And then I get lost in time and my space. Coco and Channel spend their time jumping on and off the sofa until they too enter my space and our physical reality becomes serene. When I took the picture, it was late afternoon and it had been raining on and off all day, winter looked like it had arrived, a little too early for my liking. Though winter always brings with it its own beauty, doesn't it?
I am pleased with my day's work. Talk to you soon. I hope you enjoy the picture and Thank You for allowing me to attend your party, Karen.
All the best
Judythe

ReplyDeleteand that is a good thing. Your space
is perfect and if you come into it one
day and the chair is missing, It was me!
Love it

been creating.
