I had turned my upstairs into my sewing room (approx. 2000 sq ft.) Then my DH said, "What happens when the kids come home for a visit?" So finally I set up a couple of beds and even put a few chairs, a couch and a tv up there. It actually made an even better sewing room because now if I need a break or a nap everything is right there. Of course the rooms are still full of fabric and they have to live out of their suitcases because the closets and dressers are full but it's only for a week or two. And they also have to navigate around the tubs of stored fabric, the cutting tables, the machines, etc. :lol: I just love being up there--surrounded by all those fabrics, books, sewing machines, templates, and other things.
