September is here and so is Football

1st of September and I cannot wait for some cooler weather. My favorite time of the year.
 
This weekend we are going to take it easy. I say that, but I still have to clean the house, laundry to do and the list goes on. I meant to say, take it easy from doing any sewing up in my office.

I also have been tooling about moving my design board across the room.
 
Design Board

Over to this wall and move the shelves,
 
 
 
 To the right side of this photo.

Then move both shelves where the design board is up now and move the bookcase that is behind the TV between the two shelves.


That way I will have some room to hang my beauties.

As for my desk,
 
 
I will leave it where it is for now.
 
My sewing table,
 
 
Not sure where to put it. It used to be in the middle of the room, but I did not like the table I had it on. I do like the light by the window.
 



From this door, I can take better photos across the room where my design board will be moved too. 
I also just saw that I need more totes for storage.  Did I say take it easy??????
