2 Doods' quilting room - Pics
#1
I like getting ideas from others and their use of space and storage, so I
thought I would share my room with you too. I want to move it down the hall to the spare bedroom but we need to remove a closet and add a window first. So I use this room off the master bedroom for now.....
Hope you enjoy the tour. I love having a room dedicated to the "mess".

The quilt on the frame is one for charity. I have to piece the backing and then start on it tonight. A lady in our guild made the top from donated orphan blocks. She only hand quilts so I volunteered to do this one. Someone wanted to tie it rather than quilt it. It has caught the eye of some of the quild members. There are a few like that. We might auction them off to raise money for more batting. I'll post pics when I get it finished.

Very nice 2doods!! I just finished moving my quilting machine out of our master bedroom & into our spare bedroom. My daughter & grandaughter just moved out on July 11th & I didn't waste a lot of time getting stuff moved so that I now have my own sewing room. I will have to send photos when I'm all done. My daughter still has a lot of stuff out in the family room to go thru & decide what to keep & what to give to the Goodwill. When they get the table cleared off, then I'll be able to move the table into my sewing room. I have lots of outdoor stuff going on trying to get ready for my daughter's garden wedding "here" on Sept 6th...so I feel like I'm juggling a lot of things right now & am looking forward to being able to eventually use my new sewing room!!! My sewing room will double as a guest bedroom...so I'm thinking about using bungie cords & have the bed stand up against the wall & use it for my quilt board when the room is not doubling as a guest bedroom.. I've already tried sticking some quilt squares to the material on the bottom of the bed & it seems to hold it ok. Thanks for sharing!!

Thanks for showing us your room. I get so many ideas for my sewing room. Right now I'm in a room about 7' x 9' but I hope to soon move my sewing room to our old bedroom which is 12' x 15'. I want to switch rooms now but DH wants me to wait until he remodels it. We're gradually remodeling our whole house.

What a fun place to go and play!! I love your quilting machine set up. Is that a Gracie frame??And, I can't figure out the machine on it. You have some smart space saver ideas going on over there and I love the light from the door!! SKeat

Thanks Skeat!
The machine is a Juki TL 98Q that Santa brought me last year. :D The Grace frame I found on Craigslist. :lol: The doods like the glass door so they can keep an eye on the wildlife. There is a window behind the quilting frame that gets afternoon sun too. Good place for a window since I wouldn't be able to reach anything on the wall.
