Just have to share pics of my wonderful room. As I mentioned on another thread here, it was 1st a game room for our son and his high school friends, then it became my husband's "man cave", and now it is all mine! I love it. It is 24 x 24. The 1st 2 pics are my old sewing room, 11 x 11. Yes, most of that stuff is in my new room, it is just neatly tucked away now. It took me about a year of arranging and re-arranging to get my room to "flow" for sewing.

Sure, come on over. The whining usually starts about 7:30 or 8 pm and generally happens every night! :-D

My brother designed that for the door to our ac/heat unit. We used old barn wood throughout the room when we built it. Love that old stuff!

I think it called a Handi Quilter. Was a pkg. deal, Juki machine and frame that I ordered on line several years ago. I have used the dickens out of it over the years.

I'd never want to leave!!

thequiltmama 03-03-2011 08:50 AM

you are very lucky :)

quiltgran2 03-03-2011 08:50 AM

Great space. I especially like the "whine" area, however I think I could possible do far too much "whining" and far too little sewing. But that is seriously a super space for spending the day with a friend or two quilting (and whining) til your heart's content!

Mariposa 03-03-2011 08:55 AM

Wow! Fantastic room!! You could get in there, and not leave!

SuzyQ 03-03-2011 08:57 AM

My family would never find me again if I had a room like that. As it is they often have to beg me to come out of my 12x12 hideaway....uh, I mean sewing room.

sewmuchmore 03-03-2011 09:18 AM

Awesome place to sit back and quilt your heart out. :thumbup:

BrendaY 03-03-2011 09:23 AM

Love that you have a recliner AND a rocking chair in there! Lovely!

RedGarnet222 03-03-2011 09:23 AM

Wow look at all that room to sew in. Nice flow too!

alaskasunshine 03-03-2011 09:26 AM

All that space so little time... :-D

I actually prefer red wine. :D But green tea would be okay. Meet you at the airport! :lol:

KathyAire 03-03-2011 09:58 AM

Love it. You doubled your space and then some. You might get lost.

jackied 03-03-2011 10:21 AM

I would just 'live' in that room. You are fortunate to have so much room.

katyquilter 03-03-2011 10:22 AM

Love it, love it, love it!!

GrammaBabs 03-03-2011 10:28 AM

It wonderful... i've a nice room as well, it gets out of control a lot, and it slows me down until i can "get it together"... :)
my quilting system is unfortunately in the MIDDLE of the room,,, so i can walk around it, but by the same token, ,, it's a lot of "walking around.... LOL

Brenda M 03-03-2011 10:39 AM

Awesome room, I wish mine was that big... can I come over an 'whine' too!! LOL

laughingquilter 03-03-2011 10:50 AM

Wow! Your new room is awesome and with all that space and different "zones" - why would you ever leave it? :D

With me. LOL. Great space. Lucky gal!

olebat 03-03-2011 01:50 PM

Luv what you've done with the place! I like the drawer treatment. Thanks for the inspiration. Now to find the time and discipline to sew up anything that matches for the room, much less the drawers and LA skirt.

labug 03-03-2011 01:52 PM

Love it I wish I had a room

Dollysquiltingmom 03-03-2011 01:53 PM

quiltwoman 03-03-2011 02:01 PM

NanaCsews2 03-03-2011 02:06 PM

Sooooo, where'd you stash your husband since you took over his man-cave? Very neatly organized wonderful creative room all for yourself. Gotta love it! Congratulations and Enjoy!! Count me in for the whinin' session. I mean, 'wine-in'. I'll bring my own glass. lol
