I think it's an awesome idea!! Truly sometimes getting the misc. clutter out of all the other rooms helps to "open" them up to such an extent that it makes the loss of another space worthwhile. My sewing area had been in my laundry area with approx (and NOT kidding) 6" behind my machine. It wasnt a real happy place to quilt. Piecing was fine. Now that the machines is on the dining room table, I use it all the time. Take pics and let us know how it goes.. and Mary.. LOVE that pic!!!! yes priorities!!!! :)
