Swapped spaces and loving it.
 
4 Attachment(s)
Since I broke my foot in October I haven’t been able to get up and down the steps to my quilting room. A few weeks ago hubby suggested moving my sewing room up to the main floor and moving the guest bedroom down to the lower level. All it took was me saying yes and he jumped right on it. He moved everything out and painted the room, installed a ceiling fan with lights, switched out all the light switches and outlets and moved all my quilting/craft stuff in. Then, he took me to IKEA and bought a couple desks to match one we got from son and DIL and I’m back in the saddle. I love my new space.

Super big hugs to your hubby!! He understands your need to sew and create!

What a great space--and give your hubby extra hugs from all your quilty friends. I'm sure you love being on the main level now where you can be close to him and all the conveniences, whether your foot is good or not. Are you all healed up now?

jmoore 01-31-2018 03:52 AM

I can see why you love it...your new space looks very inviting. How exciting and what an awesome hubby.

SusieQOH 01-31-2018 03:53 AM

Awesome hubby, and what a beautiful room.
Fantastic idea to swap rooms and make getting back to sewing easier.

Looks like a fun place to enjoy your stitching!

So happy that you are back in the saddle again. What a great sewing room and you have a terrific husband for doing all that you--he certainly is a keeper!

janjanq 01-31-2018 05:28 PM

Hmmmmm! My sewing room is in the basement too! Maybe if I broke my foot.....no wouldn't work. Didn't work when I had double knee replacement surgery!

wesing 01-31-2018 05:35 PM

Congratulations on your new access to your craft. Hope your healing goes well.

quilter in the making 01-31-2018 06:40 PM

A little better everyday. Still can’t wear anything but a tennis shoe on that foot, but I’m walking again! Thank you for asking.

zzmom 01-31-2018 06:42 PM

Wonderful space! I'm sure it is inspiring to spend time in. Enjoy!

csharp 01-31-2018 07:06 PM

WHATTA GUY...so happy that you can do your quilting again. Love the studio. Thanks for sharing.

quilter in the making 01-31-2018 07:13 PM

For those asking, my room is 12 ft x 14 ft. Smaller than the old sewing room, but I already feel more at home in my new space than I ever did in my old space. We bought this house and moved in less than 2 years ago and we’re still very much in the process of making it “ours”.

stillvnu 01-31-2018 08:09 PM

Lucky you! Enjoy!

Jingle 01-31-2018 08:11 PM

Beautiful sewing room. Great Husband to jump in and do all the moving and set up. Mine would help but not do it all.

greaterexp 01-31-2018 10:19 PM

Congratulations on your new room and on choosing a terrific husband!

Darcyshannon 01-31-2018 11:21 PM

How sweet of your DH and how nice that you like the space better. Hope you enjoy many hours of sewing. I am so looking forward to setting up my space. We are moving mostly next week and then a little bit more the week after. I have a lot to do but am excited about my new space.

KwiltyKahy 02-01-2018 03:51 AM

Awesome, not just the space but the hubby. Does he rent out? or have a brother? LOL

Kris P 02-01-2018 04:22 AM

You're going to love your new space! Being so close to the action, you'll be able to pop in there more often. I'd love to have a room on the main floor... Enjoy!

ArtsyOne 02-01-2018 04:32 AM

Perfect solution! It's so much easier to find a few minutes to sew if you can keep an eye on the stove at the same time. And sometimes guests like to find some time to themselves, so having the guest room in the basement addresses that issue too. I'm so envious!

Innov8R 02-01-2018 07:29 AM

Great space and a VERY special husband!

llong0233 02-01-2018 11:53 AM

I hope you appreciate how lucky you are to have a spouse who "jumps right on" anything! Much less has the skill and knowledge to revamp a room. It looks great. Nice work. Hope you ankle back to normal soon.

red-warrior 02-01-2018 02:22 PM

What a great quilting space! Also one GREAT hubby!

nativetexan 02-01-2018 02:38 PM

oh that is wonderful. it's always good to have a happy wife than a grumpy one!

indymta 02-01-2018 02:54 PM

Love your new room but can't say enough about what a wonderful hubby you have!
