I would also like tables for friends to come in and work and comfortable seating in a group arrangement so we can sit together and hand sew or quilt. I would use fluorescent daylight bulbs but they'd have to be in attractive fixtures, no long tubes all over the ceiling for me. I would also want wood or wood look flooring that would be easy to sweep up in the sewing areas and a soft berber in the seating areas. The flooring would distinguish the various areas of the room and could add to an artful feel if planned well. What an exciting time for you, the sky is the limit so be creative and enjoy the process!!!
