Since having to sell my house and move four times in a little over a year, I have had several sewing areas, each time getting smaller and smaller. I am just completing the last move and finally have all my sewing stuff together again, but limited to a corner of my bedroom. My son came home with a cabinet for my fat quarters and now I can finally see some fabrics. My yardage is in a bucket that I need to move things around in order to access. Here is a pic of my stash jumping at you.

Well, you know...If there's a will there's a way! So good for you to not allow 4 moves and a small space stop you!! My mother lived in a tiny apartment and she cranked out some amazing crafts!

Looks small to you but I think it's bigger than my space. And a little more organized. Whatever it takes to keep on quilting, right?

Your area looks very efficient. Hope you are settled and don't have to move anytime soon.

If it makes you feel any better, my space is way smaller :-)

I feel your pain! I had a full finished basement all to my quilty self and we downsized to a small 3 bedroom house. I got everything stuffed in the spare room! Ya gotta do what you gotta do! Now everything is in arm's length! (although I can't find anything either). Good luck with your quilt room, hope you won't have to move again.

It sucks losing space. However I am sure you will knock out amazing quilts no matter how small your area is.

All my quilting stuff is hiding in a closet that is 3'x4' and the space is also shared by my husbands uniforms and our winter coats! I sew at the kitchen table. It can be done just takes a little getting use to.

Good luck.
