In the closet there is 6 large shopping bags full of scraps (for our baby/child quilt ministry). Who needs a dining room anyway??
Look at it this way, at least you are using good space, a dining room..what could be better...very few people I know actually use their formal dining rooms, except maybe at Christmas. The rest of the time they sit there looking formal and untouchable.
