For many years, Paula Nadelstern made her beautiful kaleidoscope quilts on a Featherweight on her kitchen table. If you aren't familiar with her quilts google her name. It's not the size of your sewing room, it's the desire in your heart.

Life always throws challenges to see how we handle them. Depending on you GS age sometimes they just really need their space to call their own. They just need to be taught to respect the space they've been given.

If your grandson was using the dining room or part of it, can't you now use that space for at least some of your sewing stuff? If you use the room for dining you could arrange to cover the sewing things with some pretty cover(s) when you wanted.

selm - he is just in a playpen in the middle of the room, and I finally got that room cleaned out and arranged into an actually dining room, so I won't be moving my sewing stuff in there. I waited too long to have it haha!

MaryMo, my daughter is only 17 and still in school and then starting culinary school so she will be with us for a while. Probably 2-3 years at least and this is okay. I love having them here, we get along great (most of the time!) and my GS is just a charming little fellow and we love seeing him every day

Sad that you lose your own room, I know it is nice to have a space that is "just for your quilting" (in my case where I can just close the door and leave a mess). What a joy, though, to have your little man with you!, seems like when the grandchildren come, life goes by even faster than usual! We have a grandaughter that used to pretty much live here as a babe and now all of a sudden we are making appointments for sleepovers and she was over yesterday cleaning cupboards and blinds, etc, to make money to go on a shopping spree with her friends! Enjoy your boy, that is a wonderful replacement and its not forever!

I know Susy. There is nothing better than when he looks up at you and just smiles like you are the best thing ever!
