I did some quilting years ago and loved it. Then my work area was overtaken and life got really busy.
Since sending the kid off to college last year, I've got the time and I created a limited amount of workspace so decided to start up again. I really enjoy it.
My frustration though is that I don't have a lot of space to spread out so really need efficient space.
You'd probably really love having a cabinet for your machine, especially the workspace and the ability to close it up. That's one of the things I like best about my cabinet.
