WOW, I would love to have a sewing room like this!!! What a wonderful way to spend you time by working side by side with you mom - cherish this time together.

asmmauer 01-25-2011 07:52 PM

your sewing and paint studio are awesome.

brendadawg 01-25-2011 07:53 PM

Oh, wow. That room is justs beautiful, and so roomy. I love the way it's all set up. I know you and your mom will enjoy being creative in there!

fabric whisperer 01-25-2011 07:56 PM

wow, I wish my mom or gram were still here, that would be so cool to share a space like that! My gram was a watercolor artist, she would have loved a space like that to spread out the Sumi-e and watercolors... Wow! You are going to love and cherish the time creating!

klutzyquilter 01-25-2011 07:57 PM

WOW WOW WOW .... I think this is the best I've seen so far!

annpryor 01-25-2011 08:02 PM

I am also jealous, but good for you girl that is wonderful.

4girlsmimi 01-25-2011 08:17 PM

Love your room! Always like seeing other folks' sewing/craft rooms. Like your layout! What a special treat to share it with your mom. Enjoy and happy crafting/quilting to both of you!

kiesh 01-25-2011 08:17 PM

That looks great! I wish I could have a space dedicated to sewing. Whenever I want to sew something I need to clear off some space on a desk or table, get my sewing machine out, find all my quilting stuff, etc. It's always such a hassle.
When I get a place of my own I hope to have a dedicated spot for all my hobby supplies. Although I'm not sure it will compare to the wonderful space that you have!

I LOVE the idea of having a cutting table on top of dressers. GREAT storage for all your cutting tools.

Beautiful sewing/art studio. So happy for you, especially to work with your mom.

penski 01-25-2011 08:52 PM

WOW :-D what a lovely room to share with your mom. So well organized and spacious...I'm jealous that I don't have one like that but very happy that you and your mom do.
Enjoy!

chuckbere15 01-25-2011 09:32 PM

I think we should all crash at her place!

grammysharon 01-25-2011 09:53 PM

I think we are all jealous of all the room you have :thumbup:

Delbra 01-25-2011 11:01 PM

pdcakm 01-25-2011 11:43 PM

who needs california dreamin' when you have texas reality.

i have never wanted to live in tx but may be persuaded to change my mind. looks to me like you have room for one more. i just need a small corner. just beautiful.

aussie bella 01-26-2011 01:53 AM

that is awsome, enjoy with your mum for many years

bobquilt3 01-26-2011 05:32 AM

Love all the windows and the creative use of furniture (I think they call it repurposing today) ENJOY. I just had to down-size from half a basement to a guest room with a large closet. :-( But one can make anything work.

morelcabin 01-26-2011 05:34 AM

Amazing! I love it!

IT_Nana 01-26-2011 05:39 AM

WOW... that is wonderful! Can I come over and play? I live in Texas :-).

Enjoy every minute with your Mother ... you are blessed to have her with you.

WOW what a wonderful room for you & your mom to enjoy ! Where are you in Texas ? Can I come visit and play sometime ?? I sure miss my Mom, we would sew & craft together too. She would often knit or crochet while I quilted. Good memories :)
BTW, where did you get those great colored baskets with handles ?

We live about 65 mi. NW of San Antonio - West of Bandera. Baskets came from Hobby Lobby.

So I live in an Austin suburb...how far away are you from here?

Nice to have such an outstanding room! I'm green :)

Annaquilts 01-26-2011 06:23 AM

Oh my not a Quilt Room but a Studio! Very nice! What a blessing to be able to share it with your mother. Have a wonderful time together!

Thx for the basket info ... Oh now I am even MORE envious ! One of our favorite places ... the Medina River, the Sabinal, Utopia, Lost Maples, the Guadalupe, Kerrville ... Love the Hill Country ! Still in the Houston area but plan to retire up there in a few !! Wish I were there right now :)

LOL - You'll get here and when you do, you'll never regret it....I 'served my time' in Dallas and Houston for a total sentence of 18 years before being set free in the hill country!!
