Mic job. It is great to see what people can do with little space. That so totally inspires. me.

Love your sewing rooms. Hope you don't mind if I use some of your ideas, I like the ruler wall. My sewing room is not sewing friendly and working on it.

Thanks for sharing!

Love all your sewing/quilting space! Thanks for sharing!

What great cheery spaces you have to sew in. So pretty with the flower wallpaper and pretty curtains.

Shirls4sons 11-23-2011 06:32 AM

Love your spaces! I like having all your templates hanging on that wall ! By the way, I once had an ironing board that had the wooden fold out legs like yours....did you change the top on yours?! Gives you much more room to press! I like it.

Your sewing rooms are charming. I am jealous. I love old house!

You are so organized! Looks easy to find just the right ruler for the job! Thanks for sharing your lovely sewing space.

What a ppretty, nice space you have! It is so bright!

Nanaof4 11-23-2011 06:53 AM

You are so lucky to have such a beautiful space. Sure beats my lower level (cellar) space.

What a wonderfully cozy sewing area! I long for a spot that is "just mine" for all my sewing stuff.

Awesome sewing rooms. Overall lots of room.

jeanharville 11-23-2011 03:46 PM

Your rooms are so warm and welcoming. I like everything about them. I could move right in and feel at home. I hope you don't mind if I borrow some of your ideas, especially the ruler wall.

AuntieD 11-23-2011 04:57 PM

Love your room! It looks like a wonderful place to spend time.

jillnjo 11-23-2011 05:06 PM

I love those yellow walls!! And the way you have all your rulers together and your FW on the desk that I love and would have thrown away a few years ago before I loved old better than new!! I like your sewing pad!

Crlyn 11-23-2011 05:09 PM

Wish I had 3 rooms for my hobby, how wonderful for you and looks so well organized.:thumbup:

Nettie Phillips 11-23-2011 05:58 PM

Nice place to work.

ctmhjenn 11-23-2011 09:43 PM

I love it, looks like a fun place to play. The lace curtains and the Singer 99 or 66????? Fits perfectly.

ctmhjenn 11-23-2011 09:44 PM

Wait....that's a featherweight! Good job!

squirtygirl 11-23-2011 10:03 PM

Oh my gosh I luv luv luv your sewing spaces. I'm in a studio, so I don't have anything set up permanent. Hope to be able to some day, but I make due. Your spaces are so cheerful.

Merivale 11-24-2011 01:02 AM

What warm and welcoming spaces you have, they look made for all sorts of sewing, thinking and hibernating.

Retired GI Jo 11-24-2011 02:54 AM

Wow! You sure have made the most of your space. Very pretty.

jeaninmaine 11-24-2011 05:21 AM

Love how well organized your space is. The yellow is great, such a happy color. The way you have your templates/rulers set up is perfect, you can see every one so you can find it right away.

TacoMama 11-24-2011 05:46 AM

Love your rooms! Love the cutting room especially!

Eliebelle 11-24-2011 05:49 AM

I really love old houses and yours looks beautiful. How clever you are to make the best use of the space AND come up with something that adds to the warmth!!

Lynnejean 11-24-2011 06:29 AM

Love those bright yellow walls! It makes for a sunny happy place!

MamaBear61 11-24-2011 06:32 AM

Great use of your space. I love old Victorian homes.

LETIA 11-24-2011 10:03 AM

What a great sewing space. Very nice

Linda - K. 11-24-2011 10:45 AM

Love your sewing rooms. Your wall with the rulers looks like "art". Great idea also with the denim pockets on one wall also. Those old houses in Everett do have odd rooms. I lived in some old houses around Everett when we moved over here from Spokane and can remember those slanted ceilings. I'm short but could still hit my head!

PolkaBabe 11-24-2011 02:26 PM

Close encounters of the creative kind. The space is cute, & did I spy an old Wood ironing board frame? Wow, haven't seen one of them in many years. Thank you for sharing.

1000projects 11-24-2011 02:34 PM

I love your slope ceilings so much! We used to live in a tiny cape cod, when we first got married ;)

angelahen 11-24-2011 02:48 PM

instead of a sewing room sounds like you have a sewing house!! Your sewing spaces look lovely

Jeandrig 11-24-2011 02:50 PM

This is so pretty and neat. I see I need to take pictures off my wall and hang my tools. Thanks for the look see.

QUILTNMO 11-24-2011 03:46 PM
