i have a standing desk by the giant window in the living room and most of the time the ironing board is behind me for pressing so i suppose i have a little room of sorts. i love it, I'm in the middle of the action and enjoy long conversations with my kiddos while I'm sewing and I have a nice view of the trees outside. i keep my fabric in my walk-in closet in the bedroom and my notions are in neat bins under my desk.
It's most definitely my stress reliever too: if I'm not chatting with my kids or listening to movies, I've got my headphones on and ignoring everyone. I have a very high volume customer facing job and I get "peopled out" and I need to not be around anyone but my family for days at a time sometimes. Sewing is such a great escape.
