Perhaps you can put something in front of your fabric on boards. I would be afraid of the front edges fading from the sunlight. That happened to me, so now I have a quilted cover hanging in front. Just a thought.

Your inspecter is the best kind to have. Congratulations on getting this started before 'the future' comes to you. This way you will always have space in your world for you!

Lucky lady! Now it's time to start messing it up! :)

It warms my heart for a 22 year old to be such a sewing enthusiast! Love your space and your inspector. :-)

While I am jealous of your organized space, I was also excited to open your post and see we have the same Singer sewing machine. I just got mine for Christmas so I am still learning all it does- so far, I really like it but I haven't really tried all the specialty stitches. I just retired from my job and decided to learn how to quilt-thus, the new machine. I was reluctant to purchase a really expensive machine in case I got too frustrated with my new hobby and decided to quit. So far, I am really enjoying the machine and my new hobby. I particularly loooove buying fabric. What's your opinion of the Quantum?

Thank you everyone for the nice comments! I love coming to this board to "hang out" with like minded people!

Fortyniner- so far I love my quantum. I have had it for only about 5 months but I have sewn my heart out and quilted two quilts on it! No problems yet! Like you I haven't found the need yet to mess around with all of the 600 different stitch types yet :) my favorite features are the top load bobbin and the automatic thread cutter! I hope to someday in the future purchase a long arm machine to quilt on and use my quantum for piecing :) I taught myself how to sew and how to quilt on a Singer so purchasing another Singer seemed like a good purchase especially considering the price of the machine on Amazon! I hope you like your quantum!

You definitely have a super space in the making and obviously your quilt inspector thinks so too, keep up the good work :)
