If I move my Sewing room into my windowless laundry room, will I be asking for trouble? Can't afford to cut into Rock-walled house to install a window, at this time.

I like windows as I can see out and I enjoy the natural light. My suggestion is get good lighting and hang up something you like to look at for a view.

Thanks, carolj, was also concerned re excess moisture in the air, laundry sometimes seems neverending!

Thanks so much.

Just make sure you have lots of lighting.

If worried about moisture, get a dehumidifier.
Keep the machine oiled, as the manual says. My sewing room is in the basement & having my machines rust is a concern. I had painted murial on my one wall down there, but painted over it and like the white walls better. |

My laundry room barely holds the washer and dryer. Our walk in closet is bigger than the laundry room.

My grandmother used the top of her big chest freezer as a cutting table. She sewed clothes and every pattern was cut on that freezer top. It was scratched all to pieces but she didn't care. No cutting mats then. If you have front loaders you can put a cabinet top across them and have a great cutting /pressing area.

I was in the laundry room first. laundry never got done! Got rid of family room... nobody used it. Now its my sewing room. Best thing I ever did. Laundry gets done and so does my quilting! :-) :-)

You can also hang those little dehumidifiers that hold pellets (that you can find in hardware stores) if you don't have room for a bigger electric one.

Good lighting and a bright wall hanging.
