I have a very small sewing room - 6 by 10. Windows on 3 sides. It's beautiful when the crab apple tree is in blossom. I feel like I'm sitting in the tree, quilting! It's just large enough for my Koala cabinet and I can leave the ironing board set up. It's the warmest room in the house in winter. I'm going to have to start storing some of my stash in a closet just 5 feet away in another room.
