Looks like you need lots of bookcase,shelves, cabinets.
Nice space, can't have too much easy to get to storage.

Wonderful space!

Are you leaving the sofa in there?

My old eyes needs lots of light, so I would probably paint the wood paneling. (Seemed like heresy when we did that to a basement room in our old house, but it ended up looking nice and really improved the lighting in the space.)

I like the suggestions for pegboard and lots of cupboards and cabinets!

We did that decades ago in my mother's house - the 1960's dark paneling was repainted white. It's amazing how much lighter and bigger and airier those rooms looked - and all for a day's work and less than $100/bucks.

Very nice, I love the paneling. Don't paint over it, just get lots of white furniture like bookcases, a sewing table and a cutting table. And some overhead lights such as track lighting. The kind that hangs down a bit from the ceiling. Pendant lighting is what it's called I think.

Great! Do you use the pingpong table for sandwiching your quilts? I was thinking that one would just the right size and then when not in use could be used as a design wall.

Any thoughts or comments appreciated.

That is a nice, big room. I know that you will enjoy your "She Cave". You can shut the door and enjoy the peace and quiet of working on your projects.
