Okay, I must ask... where is home? And can I take your hubby to Ikea and have him help me, too?! I don't often make the trip over... it's not usually worthwhile enough... but this would SO be worth it!

Hi Neighbor! I live NE of Woodinville! Hubby is always willing to take a trip to Ikea, where I'm sure he would encourage you to get all sorts of fun things. However, a designer he's not. He is great at helping put it all together though! :-D

The room is 13 x 14, including the closets, so there's definitely not a future for a quilting machine in there! Any size space can be fun to plan, and some of the small ones are the cutest I've seen.

You can borrow him, but beware he is not a designer at all. However he can do modifications, and handle any electrical, phone or cable installs you might want! And, when it's all done he'll continually tell you that you need to buy more fabric to fill up all the cabinets! :D
What!!!! Your DH actually told you that you need to buy more fabric?? OMG, he's a keeper !!!!!!

What an awesome room. Are you a designer by trade? How many months did you spend thinking about all the things you wanted to include in your room and how drawers were going to be organized? I'm sure being so organized, it saves you lots of time looking for things. I'm jealous. I've seen the furniture from IKEA before on a DVD I have from Jan Krentz. It certainly seems to fit the needs of a quilter. Since you have moulding around the edges of your cutting/ironing table, how do you get the different surfaces off to change them?
