I sew in my dining room as we are empty nesters. I have used one of the bedrooms for computer and quilting. I put in a sofa bed so I don't have to have a full bed in there. This way when one of the kids comes home I just move stuff and pull it out. I want a long arm and it would fit perfectly but have to wait to afford it.I like sewing in the dining room because of the light and size. I just can't make it permanent or take up space in living room.I keep my quilting project that I'm working on in the dining room and use my kitchen divider for cutting and ironing. I just keep it very neat and orderly. My friends say I'm sick because I'm sort of a organization freak. I'm happy.
