A "she shed" for a quilting zone
 
Just saw this wonderful post of "she sheds" Wouldn't one of these make a great little quilting spot?? It makes me consider moving all my garden stuff into the garage and converting my shed into my quilting studio!! So creative!

they look comfy, that's for sure, but i find she sheds offensive! how small they are compared to a man's cave.....such a discrepancy!!!

I'd have to have air conditioning. The mosquitoes would eat me alive.

I have a friend who turned her shed into a quilting studio .It's the coolest thing--literally! She's got an air conditioner in it for the summer. Puts heat on during the fall and winter. Mini-fridge, TV, radio, and a thread display rack that she bought from a quilt shop that was going out of business. It must have 1000 spools of thread still in it.

She says if she didn't have a job, she might never come out.

Aren't they all so cute!!

So cute! My favorite is #10....the '50's diner look! I've always loved the '50's look, maybe because I was born in late '56....and no, you can't guess my age, can you?

If I lived in a more moderate climate....but winter here is too cold......

Wouldn't that be fun? The Amish lady who sometimes finishes my quilts has her own quilting shed. It's not small, is separate from the house, and is where she can work on her quilts in comfort. :-)

Some are so very cute!!

Would love to have one that would be a quilting studio. These are so cute.

This would be a wonderful solution for my sewing space when we move to our retirement house in the mountains! #11 would be just the ticket! But in teal.

I love # 4. These are so cute, but not large enough to hold much.

Leah Day just had an article about the shed they put in her backyard for more quilting/crafting space. Saw an adorable shed here with front porch and we talked about it but at almost 69 and with the heat and final cost with insulation and electric and AC, not to mention no bathroom/water, decided I am too old for this. They sure are cute and if I was 10-20 years younger who knows.

I know that my post may make some of you droll but I am going to risk posting this picture. We had an outdoor pool while our grandson lived with us, then my husband wanted to build a building around it. Then when our grandson moved he decided to fill it in since we rarely got in it. At first I was upset then he said---I thought you might like it for a quilting room. Well that was just the right thing to say. He really had an ulterior motive. He didn't like my "stuff" in every room lol. Well needless to say I feel blessed to have all this space.

coopah 05-12-2015 06:12 PM

BettyB, that's just the best room ever! Your husband is a keeper! No matter his motivation! :thumbup:
