    I would but My apartment would put hurricane katrina to shame, and I too have a rambunctious toddler who is busy busy busy, you have to watch her like a hawk. i don't want to lock myself in the bathroom, but sometimes i just wish for the little one to take a nap, never happens its like wishing to win the lottery, in fact i'd have a better chance at the lottery

    My sewing space is part of our bedroom. We only have one extra room and it's my husband's office.

    I don't feel so bad now. If I can find the camera I'll post some pictures. I live in a smallish house with my dtr and grandson. My sewing corner is in my bedroom. I'm single so that's not problem for me. I'd like to be able to stretch out a bit and be able to leave stuff "as is" instead of putting things up and moving my sewing table every night to be able to get into my bed. When I cut out big stuff, I pull out 2 card tables, set them up in the living room and then wiggle around them to do the cutting. When I cut out small stuff, I move my machine to one side and cut on the sewing table. Some of my fabric is in clear plastic boxes stacked on top of each other on my dresser; some fabric is stacked on top of the plastic boxes. Some fabric is out in the storage shed...I have to go on safari for what I want somedays...I probably have way too much fabric...

    I live in a two bedroom home with my husband. I have all of my stash in my bedroom and I cut and stitch in the kitchen on a 6' table. I also have part of my quilting frame set up in my living room with my old singer sewing machine which is in a table but it is small. I don't have pictures to send.

    I have a room for sewing, so no pics from me
    BUT
    I'm 52 and I only got it last year. For years I used the hallway, and then I used the master bedroom.

    Oh, I do understand. I sewed for years on one end of our dining room table with a two-drawer metal file cabinet I bought at a thrift store to stores my things in. The top drawer was for notions and tools, the bottom one for fabric and work in progress. It locked with the push of a button which kept my toddler's inquisitive fingers out of the pins and needles. I would just disconnect my footfeed and power cord, throw them in the drawer as well and lock the whole thing up. Things will get better in time. :)
