    Hello! Finally going to get these pictures on here as promised. My DH and I planned this room for some time and I now have it how I want it. For now. We all know how things change! This room is 9x10. Pics show going around the room. I sew and cut on a large antique dining table from my mom, as when I received it we already had our large dining set that I was not going to part with. The chair is part of that set. I have plenty of room to walk around, and everything I need within reach and in its place. We took doors off closet and added shelves that I can easily get to. The thread doors were taken off to put glass in them instead of the plexiglass we used. I put Gladd Press n Seal around the open spools of thread to keep dust off. The 2 cabinets on the wall above the counter hold my teapot collection that I dont have room to display, large cones of white thread, and tied bundles of fabric waiting for quilting. DH told me I should go shopping for more fabric as cotton prices are going up. What a keeper! I leave him to the History Channel, and he leaves me to my happiness!

    Thanks all for the nice compliments. We had a great time planning this room and I don't recall one argument throught the whole process. That was a task in itself!

    Great idea with the press-n seal. Does that keep the loose thread from untangling??
