I'm 46
I do have a dedicated room since February when I got my long arm. (half a basement) Love it!
$8500. way over that now with the long arm added in (Without the long arm it wouldn't come close to that, I mainly have rulers and fabric)
Fabric- I use to work in a fabric store and bought most of it discounted but am sure its close to that.(I too have folded my fabric with the ruler and is easy to see and pick from)
