I USED to have space in my workroom!
 

Not exactly quilt related, but....

I had plans for a cutting table or other sewing related item. HOWEVER; today I got a message about a piano that an area church was giving away for FREE! It is a Baldwin 243 and is in AMAZING shape! Barely ever played!

Long story short, I won't have room for that cutting table now!

Oh, I have been looking for an affordable, decent piano for almost three years! This find has made my day!

Some things are just meant to be. What a beautiful piano. Enjoy it!

When I moved, I had to downsize and gave my Dad's antique player piano and all the rolls to my best friend. ENJOY !!!

Congratulations!

beautiful, right place at the right time!

You will enjoy the piano! Congratulations!!!

What a lovely piano! Enjoy playing it!!

How cool. Make lots of lovely music.

congratulations on your new piano

FREE...............shame on you for stealing that piano & from a church no less !!! LOL
What a fantastic looking piano & you made off like a bandit. Congratulations to you for saving this gorgeous piano from "who knows what". She's a beauty. You are sooooooooo lucky.

That is a beauty of a piano. I sometimes miss my piano. Do have a keyboard & don't play it, it is not the same.

Gorgeous! There is always the kitchen table 😄

That piano is beautiful! You will surely enjoy playing it.

Beautiful!!

A solution here......

A sheet of plywood, few screws and some hinges will easily convert your piano into a cutting table when not in use.....LOL

What a beautiful piano. You are very blessed to have received this one. It's been many years since I last played
a piano and not sure how well I could still do it, but I spent many hours enjoying it. Congratulations....much better than a cutting table!!!

You are absolutely correct, it is not the same! The fiance tried to talk me into getting a keyboard a while back and I was thinking No Way Jose! This piano has great tone quality. I am so lucky to have found it!

Looks great - happy playing!

Beautiful piano. Congrats!

Good for you--enjoy!

Lovely piano! I also have a Baldwin. We bought it about thirty years ago.

This brings back sweet memories. When I was growing up (late 50s and 60s), in my country town in Texas, all my friends and I had pianos. We all took lessons, and when we got together, we played the piano---duets, improvised songs, hymns, etc. It was so much fun. A very few of the boys took lessons, although many of their mothers had pianos.

And in church, we would read the music and sing the harmony parts. It's a shame that so many churches have done away with hymnals.

My three grandsons have a piano and take lessons (my sweet DIL was a music major), but my three grand-daughters do not have a piano.

I'm a little sad that so fewer homes have pianos these days. Glad you have gotten one for your home, even if it makes a cutting board difficult to manage now.

congratulation enjoy to the fullest, the folding cutting table will work.

Enjoy your newest toy.....I still enjoy my piano, even though I bought it over 38 yrs. ago. Our church is one of the few that still uses the hymnals, and I am the organist. I don't play by ear, so if we were to go to the praise songs, I'm sure I'd have to step down.

Good choice! To me, a piano is as important as my quilting. I hope you have many, many hours of joy as you play.

It is beautiful and I would have made the same decision. What a blessing!!! I wish I could find someone who wanted to give a piano away. I to have been wanting one for many years.

Beautiful piano have fun with it.

Nice...and free...You could not pass that up...

My thoughts exactly! Get a folding card table piece of plywood same size, there you go.

Things happen for a reason.
Wishing you joy as you play your new piano.
