??? Is this just personal preference? Or are there some excellent reasons for setting up those surfaces against walls? So what am I missing here? Clue me in!
Thanks...
If it is possible, put locking wheels on the tables and cabinets.Then you can use even a small sewing room like a large one. Whatever table you need to work with, roll it to the center.The others can be against the wall. Then if you need floor space,just roll all the cabinets and tables to the walls. That's what I did in a 10'x10' room for 8 years til my daughters started growing up and moving out.The single most important thing you need in your sewing room is good lighting and a comfortable chair to sit and work in.You could buy one for $20,but within 30 minutes your back will be in pain and your butt will be numb cause that cheap chair does not have any padding in the seat. I found this out the hard way with my first chair.
