Like your notions on the pegboard. May have to get one if I can find a place to put it.

Your room is painted the same color as my computer room (daughters old room). What size is your play room? I have my son's old room that will become my play room and they look to be the same size. Thank you for you pictures, because I was thinking about asking for suggestions for my room. My room is only 10x11, but I think I can do a lot with that size, if I plan it right. Thankyou again. Love your play room.

Beautiful! Great use of space. I made my (all season) sun porch in to my play room. Lots of light and wonderful atmosphere to work in. However, I don't have any wall space! DH built in cabinets with nice countertop (butts up to the house wall). I use the countertop for cutting and store fabric on shelves underneath. There is a sky light above the counter which is wonderful. I bought some 3 drawer storage bins with wheels for storing some of my stuff. I have two of the light weight folding tables I use for my two sewing machines. DH is going to build me some (narrow) shelving to put my threads on. I sew for pleasure and it works for me. At my age (76) I'm not making a huge investment in this adventure. :)

Love it...very nice.

Your organization is amazing. I particularly like the pictures up high, what a great idea. I like my pictures to be part of every
room. I will think of you as I go into my favorite room to play.

thequilterslink 02-03-2011 07:57 AM

Wow wonderfully organized, love it, will never happen here tho lol. I go into clean and organize and find something i just have to work on for a few minutes lol

tutty 02-03-2011 08:03 AM

You could have a career if you chose too ! Your organization skills are to plead for !!! Enjoy !

lillybeck 02-03-2011 08:51 AM

Very nice room. I have a room that is 14 by 20 but it has a king size bed and a dresser in it for guests so I am still limited,

nstewart9 02-03-2011 09:07 AM

I would really like to come to Montana and help me with my sewing room--you are obviously great at organizing!

Rosie Rockwood 02-03-2011 09:16 AM

Get some "feet" for you table and make it the height you want it to be. I have seen several different ways to do it, I cannot stand to bend down to cut, it is not good for the back.
Good luck.
Rosie

Our rooms are about the same size.

I love how you have utilized the space! I am going to copy off of you. Good job!

ga447 02-03-2011 09:43 AM

What a great room, you can feel the comfort and joy that room has.

nab 02-03-2011 09:53 AM

Beautiful room. Are you sure you work in there? I would be afraid to mess it up.

Fiber Artist 02-03-2011 11:09 AM

CJ,
Enjoy your little man as long as you can. They grow up so very fast. I LOVE my sewing room but I remember when it was a bedroom with my boys in it. Miss that time of life, but enjoying where I am now. :-)

jme 02-03-2011 12:37 PM

chants to self: "One day I'll get my own sewing room!"

Aunt Bea 02-03-2011 01:14 PM

Now I have to go and put mine back in order and it's all your fault. LOL

wisconsin 02-03-2011 01:26 PM

katiescraftshop 02-03-2011 01:29 PM

Nice!! So organized!

asmmauer 02-03-2011 01:37 PM

You have an excellent play area !

Grandmadonna 02-03-2011 01:48 PM

I love the colors and look of the quilt you are working on. I just got half a room back from spouse - he finally gave up his train set space... now I'm working towards the computer/ office space he occupies ! ! !

fluffyme02 02-03-2011 02:22 PM

:D :thumbup: Oooooooo, I wish I had a playroom like you do. Very nice indeed. I love it. Someday, I too will have a room like this. Someday.......[dreamin'.........] :thumbup:

nanna-up-north 02-03-2011 02:28 PM

Very nice....... Doesn't it make you want to go sew???....... it would me. When my space is cleaned up I really want to get to work messing it up again.

wraez 02-03-2011 03:14 PM

Oh so nice and neat and tidy ... Does it stay that way all the time?

love your playroom.

You have a very nice sewing room.

kacy 49 02-03-2011 04:07 PM

Love your room. You have so much room and everything is so organized. Love it.

SewExtremeSeams 02-03-2011 04:21 PM

Peggy, I really like your room. You have done such a great job simply and yet very useful. It looks comfy too.

To me, you have certainly made the most use of pegboard that I have seen so far. As others have said, I will be borrowing quite a few of your ideas. Thank you for sharing. :-D
