Hey sewbusy, this aint about quilting rooms-------- I noticed your antique blue dresser lamp. I have 2 just like it and my sis has a pink one. I know they are about 60 years old, at least.
Yes I had two, and they were from my brother. I am 60 years old and I have had them for about 50 years. One was broken a few years ago, my son did it and felt so bad about it. It still works perfect.

Look at those windows looking to the outside. I am so envious!

Well, ladies, many rooms are just organized messes, right? Most are not untidy until we look at Eddie's setup -what lovely large working area you have Eddie. Marsye, your comments are so amusing and made light of a very difficult task - I can't decide which setup gets the gong but so glad my room is not as bad as some, though it feels like it sometimes.

BuT WAIT - there's SEWLOVED's area surrounded by the fence - I'm guessing there's little kids involved in the home somewhere or is this how hubby keeps your hobby in line? LOL :)
LOL!

It keeps little kids out. It also keeps DH away from my scissors. :evil:

The gate can expand. So, I keep buying expansion pieces and making the space bigger and bigger. Eventually, it will take less gating to surround the kids than my stuff. :lol:
I love it! Corral the kids and let the fabric run free!

:thumbup: :thumbup:

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA......ok, I can't stop laughing. :D :D :D My wife would definitely argue with you on this point! :lol:
OK Eddie, I just gotta ask. How did you get interested in sewing? I teach sewing in high school and the guys are actually better at it than the girls - I'm thinking maybe I should offer a quilting class.

I should have taken pictures of my classroom, it's very neat because I have the kids to clean it up before they leave!

At least you have a room! I have to sew on the kitchen table. My fabrics are stored upstairs in tubs in my bedroom.

Lol...have I enjoyed looking through this thread...and having a giggle...lol. But I envy you all...you lucky people who have quilting frames, you lucky people you who have nice newish machines...you lucky people who have...A SEWING ROOM!!!
I currently sew on the dining table (and it's not a very big one...and no, I won't take a pic)..When I'm sewing we eat on one little corner where I push the machine out of the way...lol. When I'm not sewing I have to pack it all away..hence my lack of too much sewing in recent times :( But, I am deviously eyeing off a spare bedroom :D It's not very big and I don't really want to get rid of the spare single bed in it, but I'm sure I could stretch the walls somehow..lol.

Cool! I must have 6 yards of it...My daughter was going to throw away the valances in the family room of the house they bought. NO WAY I yelled. Let's wash them and see if the material is any good. Needless to say I cam home with a huge amount of that material. It might even be home deco material. Think it would work great for potholders and aprons!
