we all have our happy place! No judging here. PS. it looks great, and inviting. Wish I could come play with you!

MicheleC 04-02-2019 08:40 PM

Looks like creative chaos to me! 👍

Aurora 04-03-2019 12:32 AM

Who am I to judge? At least you can walk around in yours. I have to turn sideways to get into mine.

Lilrain 04-03-2019 12:34 AM

Looks like a great place to me.

Battle Axe 04-03-2019 02:17 AM

Looks really happy to me. I spotted your long arm to the left. Your stash must be in another place?? You have all the toys.

Lena1952 04-03-2019 03:01 AM

Do I know you? How did you get into my studio?! LOL If your's is a mess, mine is a pig pen, but still my happy place. Embrace the mess and be happy!!

Cindy60545 04-03-2019 03:19 AM

Well, neighbor, we share messy sewing spaces. You're in Caddo Mills. I'm just the other side of Quinlan! I'm on Lake Tawakoni. Between Quinlan & Wills Point.

It looks like a perfectly productive space to me...and you probably know where everything is. Your photo reminds me that I need to be better about covering my machines...

lindaschipper 04-03-2019 04:01 AM

The majority of us would kill to have a space that large for a sewing room...messy or not! Bu I would have to have mine painted! LOL

Joset 04-03-2019 04:29 AM

it is a great place. i like. looks like a happy place

SusieQOH 04-03-2019 04:33 AM

If you tried to walk inside my sewing room you'd realize yours looks pristine :D

EmiliasNana 04-03-2019 05:14 AM

No judge here. Love how much room you have. Personally I have to clean mine often because it is too small to leave stuff out for long, or it gets buried.

Sewgood 04-03-2019 05:36 AM

nice space! Looks like you have all the "toys" too. The black design on the floor has me intrigued....what is it?

institches33 04-03-2019 05:37 AM

For many of us this would be "Clean".

shasta5718 04-03-2019 06:27 AM

I work better with a little chaos.

solstice3 04-03-2019 06:45 AM

What a great size!!

KathyM 04-03-2019 07:07 AM

Mine looks tons worse

zozee 04-03-2019 07:16 AM

Looks pretty "red up" to me! When can I come play ?

As a friend says: "My sewing room isn't messy, I just have ideas laying around everywhere!"

I love your sewing room! I also call mine "my happy place". Lately, it's become my extremely messy happy place! For a little bit, I think I've lost my quilting "mojo".......so I'm happily doing some charity knitting. Maybe today or tomorrow, I'll get in there and try to make some sense of different projects just hanging around (Quilts of Valor quilt - need to finish sewing the last block/clue, Quilts of Valor - different quilt that needs to be quilted and bound, 2 bookmarks that my neices want me to make for them, .....maybe it's not so bad.......)!

cashs_mom 04-03-2019 08:22 AM

Good to see a messy, homey sewing room! Mine is the same. But it's my mess and I love it there. I can hardly wait to get back to work in mine. Work as in quilting, not cleaning up :D

Jordan 04-03-2019 11:23 AM

Looks like it is a happy place for sure. Enjoy.

pegquilter8 04-03-2019 12:44 PM

That!!! is clean. I can hardly able to move in my 10x13 space. Wanta switch?

Mariposa 04-03-2019 01:41 PM

Looks like a fun place to be! :)

sJens 04-03-2019 03:45 PM

looks like a very creative space to me

Quiltah Mama 04-03-2019 04:11 PM

That to me just looks like organized chaos.... Everything in its place, and I bet you know right where everything is.

peaceandjoy 04-03-2019 04:11 PM

Gosh, I don't think it's too bad!

I don't have a dedicated space. DH has taken over the basement with pool table and office, and for whatever reason is reluctant to make one of the spare rooms a sewing room. I've basically taken over the family room - which is mostly fine, as the family is grown and gone, lol. It just doesn't look nice as it's open concept into the kitchen, which just had a major remodel.

SillySusan 04-03-2019 04:38 PM

Mess?! What mess?! This looks like a wonderful happy place! Enjoy!!

Darcyshannon 04-03-2019 06:07 PM

It really doesn’t look messy, but a well-used quilting studio. If a room is sterile, it doesn’t look used.

I guess I should take some pictures of mine.

weatheread 04-03-2019 08:15 PM

Black duct tape where the linoleum rug cracked I need new flooring

luvstoquilt 04-04-2019 04:29 AM

I love it! When my space is clean I can’t find a thing!

tuckyquilter 04-04-2019 08:18 AM

Looks very nice to me. Trust me.. you're organized. I'd love to come and play in your space.

AStitchInTime 04-04-2019 04:09 PM

First thing I noticed.....not one, but Two air conditioning units! Wow am I jealous.

Sewgood 04-04-2019 06:01 PM

It looks like a really cool design!

You have a wonderful room to create quilted treasures! Have kicked around the idea of using a spare bedroom for my quilting room (currently using the dining room), but feel a little guilty about not having a bedroom available if overnight relatives come. It was my daughter's bedroom, and feel that I should keep it "her room." A friend recently told me she had gotten over the idea of what might make the kids happy a long time ago, and uses her house as she feels like! ha ha. Some day I might have to take her advice. Enjoy your great quilting/sewing studio!

goldsberry921 04-05-2019 05:22 PM

Looks good to me!!!

This is the best quote!!!!

Jingle 04-09-2019 12:50 PM

Looks good to me, hard to be creative in a real clean room. Enjoy.

rilene 05-18-2019 08:25 PM

Looks like mine - a very happy place! I can't be creative when everything is put away!
