Default A room to call my own...

Yippie, I finally got my own room for sewing.... I got the back room in the garage.. The garage is not attached to the house but I do not care... it is a 12x12 room with its own door entrance and window.. Now I just need to clear it out and get it ready... oh before and after pictures are a must.............. one wall needs sheet rock, so off to home depot I am going this weekend............. the floor is a wooden( It will be repainted as a large quilt square ) mine, mine, mine, all mine...................

Congratulations! I know the room will be charming! Sad so many wives and moms put their wants last on the family 'list of want' priorities. I'll be last when it comes to need if necessary but never last on the want list.

Our oldest Granddaughter was leaving with us for the last almost 8 years. She moved out and I took the room. I now have a large sewing room that works perfectly for me. Two large closets for my fabrics on wire shelving.
Good for you to get a room of your own.

My husband says now he has an insight into our evil quilter minds after I read your post to him.
