    My sewing room was my daughter's bedroom. She has been married and out of the house forever for 7 years. It is now my sewing, quilting and computer room.

    I have fabric stored also in my laundry room and two differnent handquilting hoops in other rooms of the house.

    An old thread cabinet for my embroidery items

    I made an ironing and cutting station out of an old dresser by cutting off the legs.

    Don't you just love how kitties like to lay on our fabric near a window! :lol:

    Thank you for sharing your sewing room and fabric storage room. You sure do have a lot of fabric. It will get used in time.

    Nice room and what a stash you have. Do the cats come standard with the sewing room? If so I want a sewing room of my own.

    I have a little Sew Tilt table I got from Nancy's Notions. It allows you to tilt your machine at several different levels. It really helps you to see what you are doing and is easier on your neck. You can do the same thing with a couple of door stops. I love it it even has a notch for my knee lift bar and the power cord etc.

    WOW very well organized. Love it all.
    I am thinking of getting an embriodery machine. How much do you use it and which one do you have??
    They have some that are not that hard to learn to use,
    but wondering if how much I used it would justify the price.
    I have the 6600 Janome quilting/sewng machine and the 110 janome serger. Use them alot. Made sewing fun

    Wow, are you able to move around in there?.....lol
    I would go bonkers in there, I have to have space.

    Could you leave the basement window ajar? So none of us has to knock or ring the bell in the middle of the night when we come to plunder........I mean "Visit"..........lol
