I loved hearing what everyone loves about their sewing areas. I really see a common thread (LOL!) about it being their own private area. I realize that is what made me so happy about mine. It was all my stuff and I was making it just the way I wanted it, nobody messing it up all the time. I feel a twinge of regret about offering it to my quest (long story) even though I am glad I did and would do it again. All of my stuff is still in the room at one end and the bed is at the other end but it seems awkward trying to use it when someone is staying there. I have a table in the living room I am using right now but it makes our small living room a mess. So.... I have been trying to come up with a creative way to find some space maybe in the laundry room or ??? to set up a temporary space that isn't in the way all of the time and where I can find some quiet time!
