Wow, that would be nice! But you make due with what you've got. Our entire apartment is a studio with the main room being 13 x 17 and 2 closets. I'm married to a professional musician that plays the Hammond Organ, so we have one (organ) plus a leslie speaker in our place. Here are some pix if anyone is curious. The first one is essentially our main room, you can see part of the leslie speaker in the upper left hand corner. When I need a design wall, I have a portable fons & porter one that I hang on the wall behind the bed. To sandwich, I use the long wall in our entry hall and hang the sandwich. The second picture is where I have all of my 'current' projects, and notions/tools/supplies that I need on a regular basis. I also have a scrap bin up there. Organizing each project into its own crate has helped immensely with the whole having to clean up everyday thing. At the end of the day, I put the work bench and machine (covered) under the lowest shelf, throw the scraps in the scrap bin, and put the wip in its crate. All together cleanup takes 3 minutes. I've completed one twin size this way and am close to finishing up a chemo comfort quilt that will be 64" x 80". In my closet, I have 2 huge tubs with my stash, along with 3 of the charm pack storage containers from nancy's notions stuffed with charm squares and fat quarters. Eventually, I plan to make liners for all of my white crates, and I got these super cute chalk board signs that I'll use to mark what's in each crate. Not the easiest setup, but it works for me at the moment. That said... it would be absolutely heavenly to stand up, stretch, and shut the door to a sewing room. Ah, maybe someday!
