Wish I had room for that big ironing board in my sewing room. My room is stuffed with too much. If I ever get it cleaned up, I will post some pictures of it.

Third, the design wall - a 5x6 wood frame with cross supports to keep it squared, with fuzzy flannel-like stuff from the home deco dept at Joanns. So much easier to keep the pieces organized!

All from my DH who managed to get it all done in a few days before Christmas!

Of course the room still has the piano and Aunt Grace's old desk and an easy chair because I can't find another place to put them, and the lighting isn't great, and not much storage, and the electrical needs upgrade so I don't blow a fuse when I plus in the space heater....but way better than when I started out quilting this time last year. HURRAH!
