When I got my machine 5 years ago I seriously considered setting it up in my living room. But is is in a large room in my basement that is well light.

If wishes were fishes, I will own a piece of property in a few years on which I will build both a new home and a separate studio. The studio will have a wall of windows (walk in closets for fabric storage out of the direct sun), my sewing machines will be set up at one end, the long arm in front of the windows. There will be peekaboo glimpses of the ocean.

Plan b is to build a home with a studio inside. The plans I am looking at have a 15x12 Flex Room that would have a water view. https://tamlintimberframehomes.com/w...tle-Page-1.pdf

I would need more room for storage. Which is why I want to build the house and a separate studio. The company does custom design but also has a simple 600 s/f cottage that would make a wonderful studio and eventual rental.

The same company has a much larger home plan that has a huge loft that would work for a studio too. But that house is 2500 s/f, much too large for my needs.

Most likely though I will continue to live where I am. If would love to renovate the basement with a goal of one day putting in a basement suite to generate some income. If I do that I will make sure I add lots of storage that I can use for my fabric.
