This is probably a thread for fellow crafters, everyone else will just think I'm a nutter
The previous occupants of our house converted the loft into a kind of art studio (he was a very good amateur artist). I commandeered it as my craft/sewing room when we moved here several years ago.
DH has recently taken up art/painting classes. He was always quite arty but he's taken some classes and is now doing more and more.
The cheeky fecker has not only decided he's going to move into my craft room and share it (to be fair, there's plenty of room and he is more than welcome), he actually wants me to chuck out some of my stash so he can have more room!
My stash is quite embarrassing if I'm honest, it's not just fabric but knitting wool, ribbons, more rick-rack tape than I'll ever use in my life time, 2 sewing machines and an over locker, etc, etc.
I have an old dresser stuffed full of fabric plus drawers, a shelving unit, a pile of fabric pushed to the corner of my desk, god knows how many abandoned half finished projects - you get the picture
I started having a sort out over the weekend but decided I couldn't possibly part with any of it. I need it all!
He's threatened to go up there with me next weekend to 'help' - aka chucking stuff in binbags when I'm not looking.
He just doesn't get it and just keeps asking, for example, why I've still got a bag full of small strips of fabric that I cut up to make DD a rag rug 10 years ago, got bored as it was taking so long and abandoned. You never know pigs might fly I might finish it one day
I've cleared him some space, right under the biggest velux window and think he should be grateful
