We are renters here in Phoenix. Mine is in the combination living and dining area. Everything sewing related is in this room. Our second bedroom is a pretty good size and that is our den/TV room. DH can close the door and watch his TV shows.
In our previous house it had to live in the living room. My sewing room was 8 x 8 and held everything else. This house is sooooooooooooo much better.
