Where ever it works is good for me. I've seen on here a lot where people used their master bedrooms, etc. The only thing I think I'd worry about is if you do a lot of showers how the steam might effect your machines, with the dampness. You need to do what ever will work for you, no matter where its at. Years ago I gave up sewing for many years because I'd have to take my machine up and down each day due to no place to permanently set it up. Its so much easier if you can set it up and leave it up.

I live in a camper FT & sew from my recliner in one corner of the living room. When doing FMQ, I just swing my sewing table around to face the fridge & use a dining room chair! Other times, I set up our long folding table on our deck & work out there. I love working outside in the winter here during good weather.

strange sewing places
I've sewn in a motel room too, during one of my kids' group's annual convention. they have a dance that goes til midnight, with only chaperones allowed. So I sewed while I waited for my DD to get back to our room.

It's great to read of all the odd places we have sewn in before I'm one who is happy as long as I'm sewing. At present I have a desk and a dresser side-by-side as my sewing table in the living room. But I've sewn in an 8' camper before, in the dining room, basement and bedroom. (Everywhere but the bathroom!) There was a time while I was a teen that I didn't have a sewing desk, so I'd sit sideways against my dresser and sew.... a great way to get a bad back! I'll never try that again!
