WOW! You have a fabric store in your fabulous new sewing room. I think a lot of us are jealous. Now that you're organized, we can expect to see some beautiful quilts emerging like butterflies from cocoons!

Tomorrow we are getting a nice corner desk so I can set up the sewing machine and the serger. It is going to take some work and rearranging to get the big desk I have now out and the new one in. It will be a good opportunity to do some reorganizing and all that fun stuff.

The main work room is 11' 7" X 14' 5", with a closet about 5' square. That alone is a huge space to me, but the "bonus" room really is a bonus. (It is even larger but there are only a couple of feet before the sloped ceiling which goes almost to the floor.) All I truly need for sewing is in the one big room. If you don't have floor space, go vertical, is my motto, which is the reason for the floor to ceiling fabric shelves, and a couple of shelves about 18" from the ceiling that weren't even showing in the photos. I wouldn't do every wall this way or it makes the room feel like it's caving in on you. I bought an inexpensive folding stool that is stowed behind the door so can reach everything I need.

Wow, I love all you've done in your sewing space. Your fabric wall is wonderful. Now get busy and use up some of that batting and fabric!

Wow!! You did an awesome job utilizing your sewing space. I love your wall of fabric. It's inspiring just looking at it. I like all your pegboard and how you organized your cutting island. I love it all! You just need a mini refridgerator and a microwave and you'll never come out. Thanks for sharing.
