PurpleBecca & Mary, thank you both so much for the chuckle this morning! You see, hubby is (as we speak) cleaning out his office to make room for my Tin Lizzie that's coming this week!

Here's my count so far:
1. I do have a sewing room, that houses 4 sewing machines, my design wall, cutting area and 2 bookshelves/lateral file units for books, DVD's & such, and 2 shelf units for my open stash.
2. My dining room table - lurking under the protective padding of my dining room table lies my 2 large cutting mats for cutting large pieces and squaring up quilt tops.
3. Our home theater system resides on a 1973 Singer Touch N Sew with a the coolest machine cabinet - full, of course, with notions and my collection of Floriani Embroidery thread.
4. The spare bedroom upstairs houses all my garment sewing and hand embroidery supplies as well as tubs of more stash. This was supposed to be hubby's dressing room :)

Hubby's Loss:
1 Dressing Room
Part of Closet
Office
Front entry (more tubs, I'm told)
His Bathroom (I think there is a quilting mag or 2 in there!)
And, on occasion, Kitchen Table, Dining Room table, & Living Room.

Hubby Holding his Own:
Most of his Bathroom
Small Corner of Office (he says it'll fit; I'm saying not - we'll see who wins!)
Most of Garage (I have him making quilt hangers for me, so he's counting that as a loss)
His Shed
Most of his Dignity :lol:

There is a 1963 Necchi under the Kitchen Table, but that's his machine for tinkering so I'm counting that against him :D
