I'll come at this question from a different angle. I go from Ontario to south Fl every winter . Yes, I sew in each
house. I keep machine, fabric, rulers,bd, cutter, scissors etc each place. Sometimes I forget certain fabric at other
place but I am getting better after many yrs. Many snowbirds or summer cottage people are used to this moving
and they make it work. Keeping a list of whats at each place helps the organizing. Some ladies do as I used to and
sew in small spaces like a camper.
You alone know your circumstances re: boy friend. Move music stuff to a corner --cover with sheets and try to
ignore til guy takes it away. Keeps the peace that way. good luck !
