Since my son graduated from college in May, found a job where he went to college and he and his girlfriend (soon to be fiancee?) rented their first "adult" apartment together, it was time to do something with his room. So, I now have my sewing room!!! Part of the room has become our office, but that works out great for when I want to take a break from my quilting projects and check out the QB. There are some pictures attached. Nothing on the walls yet, but have a cabinet that needs to be mounted. Need to do a wall hanging for decorating. I love it!!!

Nice to have your own room for sewing isn't it. Just know you will love it. It is beautiful.

Very nice

A place for everything and everything in it's place!!!!! Hope your son doesn't come "back home" as ours did - he was 40 years old and his wife "kicked him out" and stayed with us for 6 months until he could get his life straightened out. Good luck.

Thanks for the compliments, but it is a mess now. I have my first two grandchildren on the way and in the past week I have sandwiched, quilted and bound the first baby quilt (boy due August 15th), made 2 swaddling blankets, embroidered and decorated 13 burp rags. Next project is to sandwich and quilt the 2nd baby quilt (boy due September 13th). I am on vacation from work for the month of July and trying to get lots done and having so much fun!

This sounds absolutely wonderful but unfortunately I can't make it this time. With my daughter due on August 15th, I don't feel comfortable going that far as by Mapquest it says I'm almost 4 hours away. Keep me in mind for next time though.

amma 07-11-2011 07:15 AM

You have a beautiful sewing room :D:D:D

Judith1005 07-11-2011 07:36 AM

what a great room. i'm sure you'll enjoy it. :-D

mtnative 07-11-2011 07:40 AM

My children use the "revolving door" at our house so often I don't know if I will ever be able to use one of their rooms!! Nice room for you ~ I know you will enjoy it.

CuteandCrafty 07-11-2011 07:47 AM

I'm so jealous of having your own sewing room... trying to fit all of my crafts into a dorm room this past year was... interesting, to say the least. I'm sure my roommate loved it! Luckily, next year, I'll have a single and thus my sewing supplies will simply take over my own space!

Snorky Lvs2Quilt 07-11-2011 08:15 AM

What a lovely room to create your masterpieces! Sooo organized. One of these days........<sigh>

Launie 07-11-2011 08:17 AM

YAY! I just love a good sewing space!

Melrose R 07-11-2011 08:30 AM

Greenheron 07-11-2011 08:47 AM

Ah, the sewing machine at the window........I hope you enjoy your room.

ploverwi2 07-11-2011 09:02 AM

What a wonderful room. I am jealous. I live in a one bedroom apartment and have to sew in my large bedroom. I would just love to have a real sewing room.

mcdaniel023 07-12-2011 03:06 AM

Great space, enjoy!

susanwilley 07-12-2011 03:15 AM

susie-susie-susie 07-12-2011 03:31 AM

Nice room. Before you know it your stash will take over. lol. Having your office in there is a good idea. My computer is in my sewing room, so I can sew or visit here. Two addictions to feed, my oh my. I don't ever have to leave my room unless I want to!!!

That's what I was thinking. You also need to enlarge your stash a little bit. :roll: :lol: :roll: :lol: It's so great to be able to stretch out. Great job and have fun :!: :!: :!:
