The State of The Studio Address

If this Little house was in my area, I would have it for my studio, stop taking heart meds if that was necessary and not even blink an eye. Lose the curtains over the front door, paint that door black. Clean up the "front gardens" and move in with all my "stuff!"

But it isn't. I don't know where it is, saw the photo on Facebook with no attribution.  

Like peeling the layers from a large onion, each year reveals itself in stages. My first function of each year is to assess the work space. Is there a better way to arrange the space, can I purge some of these books, how can I reduce the visual clutter? 

Sorting fabric and books has been done now I just need to study the space. NO machines are going. Do you like this template?

*ps: still testing, this is such a pain but many others have it much worse so nose to the grindstone, tweak settings and hope that all those nasty people just play among themselves!
