We just set up a new sewing/office area for me yesterday. (YEAH!!!!!) It's an L-shaped setup that has a corner section, which I pondered whether to use for sewing, or computing. I think that the computer will go in the corner and the sewing machine will go on one of the "legs" of the set up. It looks like I'll have more room for sewing big quilts this way.
As for the setup itself...they're modular units that you can mix and match. I bought part of these units from Ballard Designs about fifteen years ago. They were originally for our business office. I just recently bought a couple of new sections to create the L shape. Luckily, they still carried the same design. My space is very small and oddly shaped and this solution fit perfectly. Granted, it wasn't a cheap solution, but the furniture is pretty solid and it fit my needs to a T. I figured, get it now, or it shall never be, so I went for it. Now, I'm in the process of organizing and putting all my stuff away in it.
