Finally Consolidated Sewing and Office into Master Bedroom
 

Since it's only me living here and the cats and dog could care less what I do with my space, I have taken over the Master Bedroom with my sewing/cutting tables and my office table and desk. Now there is plenty of room for me to play. I moved the bed to the bedroom that was used to be the office and that works a lot better for me.

Here are pics of my new playroom. (No pictures of the bedroom, it's still a mess in there, but who cares. hehehehehehe)

Hooray! Why not use your space in whatever way works best for you? Looks neat and spacious. Have fun in there.

It looks like it should work well for you. Congrats!

THAT'S a fantastic idea!! I never thought to do that (and I live alone too).

Looks great I envy large space

Good for you! Why not! Do what makes us happy and more comfortable with what we do. My DH and I are old and we do whatever we want to do in our house. Our kids just shake their heads. So----------?

Looking good wish I had that much room I'm using half of my living room witch only
leaves a path through it to the kitchen. so yours is a whole lot better. :}

I took the biggest bedroom for my sewing room since its the only downstairs bedroom. :confused: And I don't live alone. I have a hubby and 2 little boys. It's the only way to keep them out of my stuff and allow metro have a place to work while they are up, and so my crafting noise doesn't keep them awake. Dh and I only use our room for bed anyways, so this is a much more useful way to use our space. :thumbup:

Looks great, and I agree, why waste all that room to sleep. It works much better as a Sewing Studio !!!

wow, lots of room indeed. congrats on your new space

Looks good! We built a "mother-in-law" apartment, but my MIL won't move in with us. I am seriously thinking about turning the huge living room there into a sewing room. Either I will get a large sewing space or, as soon as I relocate my sewing stuff there, my MIL will decide to move in! I actually hope she does move in - I love her to pieces!

A sewing room definitely is more important than a bedroom. :)

I love creative decisions! It's your home and what a great idea!! I live with my oldest daughter in the basement of her home and I've turned a bar into a sewing center... not exactly what you normally do with a bar, but it sure works for me! haha!

WoW, I too wish I had that much space. And it's so tidy! My sewing room is never tidy.....lol.

Great idea, put that big room to better use. Way to go.

Your sewing space is so neat! Mine looks like a tornado just went through! Congrats on your decision. Use your space in a manner that works for you!

Great sewing room. Happy stitching.

Smart thinking. I have a friend who put up a longarm in her living room. She said she doesn't entertain and all her friends are quilters too.

That's some room! Have fun playing in it! :thumbup: :thumbup:

That's another sweet thing about getting older and/or living alone. You can create workrooms and rearrange anyway you want! You go girl!! :thumbup:

Love the idea. I do have a bedroom in my brothers house that is my sewing room but I would love to have a place of my own and would so turn the living room into a sewing room or whatever was the biggest room in the house. I have no company and my Daisy doesn't care what I use the room for as long as she can be under my feet in it. :)

Good for you! I love a big space.

Looks great. Like you I live alone and turned my living room which is the largest room in the house into my sewing room and I have a little sitting room off of the dining room so that is now my living room. dogs don't care where their beds are as long as it is where I am so we are all happy.

haha I know what ya mean about the dogs! my dogs are under foot or laying next to my chair or at the ft of the bed. too many people in the house to spread out my stuff yet . . . someday

nice use of space. sigh. I have a desk or the kitchen table. I may just give up sewing and go back to crocheting or crosstitch for the next yr. I envy your space

Use what is best for you!!! When we moved here, I took the 'master' bedroom. Mostly because it has hardwood floors. Even DH agreed that it was a better idea.

BTW we are renting or we might have done something about the floors.

I love your BiGGGGGGG space. Mine is a small bedroom but it makes me happy to go there and just sit and enjoy "my space". Enjoy yours!!!

What a nice big work space! I actually moved a few months ago and had to down size. The sewing desk my Hubby refinished for me wouldn't even go through the doorway after we removed the door. Now my "small" machine is on a card table and the "big" machine is on the dining table. But I do still have a sewing room and am very, very happy about that. :)

Oh, are you lucky! It is so big, do you have a road map to find your way around???LOL. Enjoy all your time spent creating in that great space!

Good for you! I did the same thing last year and it is working really well for me. I sleep in the smallest bedroom - why not? You only need a bed to sleep but quilting is a whole different ballgame. :D

I'm jealous! We just moved 5 months ago & my sewing room is 'in waiting" Way too many things to be done first before we can do mine! But looks GREAT & ENOY that's what it's for!

good for you, nice space

Oh, lots and lots of space! How wonderful....

A girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do! Love your new larger space!!

You are a smart one! Looks great!!

what a terrific and wonderful Idea!Enjoy yourself and create more and make more Quilts

Looks Great! I am glad you decided to use the space how you want to.

My husband and I recently had a discussion about swapping my sewing space with the master bedroom - his suggestion. I'm still digesting the idea. We don't use our bedroom except for sleeping (unless naps or ill) and it would allow me to have a very nice space for my huge hobby. It would also allow me to have space for a twin or day bed for a resting/reading spot and also for a place for my teen granddaughter to use when she comes to visit. I'm still thinking about it. right now I have no place to set up my EZ quilter (short arm type quilting frame for use with domestic machine). Using the master bedroom would allow me that space. I like the fact that you used your space the way you need to!!

Looks great! As my family leaves, I tend to take over more of the house with sewing too!
