I'm doing this today. I sew in our master bedroom. We are blessed with a large room and the wind o w area is set in about 18 inches,so extra room there too. I had my cutting table in there by the window, and my sewing table at an angle, on the other wall. I've switched them, hoping to maybe free up some room to work. I have a bad habit of filling any open space, and I need to stop doing that and get organised. Hah! At 50 years old, I'm not too sure that this old dog can learn to be organised.
But I will look keep trying.
