Default Adding and addition to accomedate sewing room, Your Thoughts

Hi All,

I have not been around for awhile, but am still interested in quilting, to the point I bought a Grace Long Arm, which came with a Pfaff Grand Quilter 1200. I am just about to finish my first quilt and I think I have gotten on to it pretty quick, have been doing FMQ.

First let me say, I LOVE IT! The problem is, the 10 foot frame is set up in my living room, which is a bit uncomfortable.

DH and I are seriously considering adding on the house to accomadate a larger quilting room for me and add an additional bedroom. If we built out one area of our house that is 25 feet wide, say adding 16 feet = 400 sf. Currently our home is 1500 sf, this would be adding on a little over 25% of what we currently have. Has anyone tackled such a project?

We are in our 60's DH is still working I'm not currently, and we are getting along fine.

I would appreciate your opinions.
