I like this idea and I think I could pull off the glass doors. I am like you I want to look at the fabric and it will also lend a quilty feel to the decor. The only problem is I think I am going to out grow the area pretty fast. I am going to have a seating area and moving my 32" flat screen out to the quilting part of the studio. I want a dedicated ironing station that I can iron a king sized quilt and not have to move it around in 30 different directions. I will also have a dedicated cutting area and my quilting table will be able to be accessed from 3 sides and will be a lot bigger than the one I have now.
I am hoping that I can put a 144" x 72" quilting table in there and still have room. I am going to use my head this time and instead of putting the treadle on the centerline of the table it will be to the right hand side. That way I will have more room to put my quilt as I sew on it. And I will have more room to lay out the blocks and see if the design is going the way I want it to instead of taking up the living room floor. :lol: And I can baste the quilt on the table when I yank the machine out of its hole!!
But I really need to make use of the space and I want everything organized.
