The area under the house is technically a crawlspace, but it's very large, and comfortably cool year round.

This piece was created in my Sewing Dungeon in Franklin, PA.
I chose to make a Chatelaine as that is the only direction my brain would take me when considering this challenge. I used the gold decal from my featherweight machine to give me the stripe detail down the center of the piece. I stitched on scissors, pins and a needle for my other tools as without these essential items I would not be able to create anything. I also can corral many other tools on the chatelaine, making my working time more efficient as I will not be leaving That Purple Thang, my scissors or other handy dandy tools at the wrong work station!
This piece is 4" wide (except for the neck portion) and 49" long
I blogged more of my process here:

Sharpening my standard lathe tool. The grinding wheel is rated at 3600 RPM, but I'm only running it at about 1200 so the forces are very much reduced. It only takes one swipe at very low pressure on the tool.
A lot of my tools are second hand so a lot of the joints rock or are worn. It was time to assess what I have and ideally what woudl be nice to replace/update and choose what I'd actually like to use! PB-Swiss and Knippex to the rescue...

Now that's what I call "overpackaging". The new Tool album comes with awesome music and some funny glasses.
I attended an open house at an artist's loft in Amesbury, MA on Saturday afternoon. Sometimes the artist's tools are as interesting as their artwork.

Bought on Marktplaats, the Dutch equivalent of eBay.
Made by Goodell-Pratt Company, Greenfield, MA., U.S.A.
Probably it's a No. 6. (1896-1931).
Side handle is missing.
The tool at center is a clamp used for sharpening chisels. I have no idea what it is called but it works well.
Taken on one of those grey, uninspiring days in the back of our garage.
