Getting back into it

The new work is taking some time to evolve since the move.  Having no studio space I have finally created a working area in the bedroom near the back window.  There is here plenty of light and an uninterrupted view of trees.  The trestle table fits neatly within the bay window shape and the existing work is stacked in an alcove next to this.  It’s all very crowded as I have the sewing machine and essential piece of equipment set ready for frequent use once I get going, also the ironing board and all the materials.  My main aim will be not to let the working space ooze out over of the invisible boundary and spill into the bedroom space, could be catastrophic.  I am restricting the use of paint; hope I can stick to this.
