Such beautiful workmanship on the cabinets! I look oak and those cabinets are especially nice. Great looking sewing room!

Great sewing room. Liked your Baileys Home Quilter.Is that from Baileys in Lecister NY? If so i know, them well. Live about 50 miles from them. Done business and classes there for years.

Very nice!

Beautiful room. My sewing room also has lots of natural light and it makes me happy just stepping in the door.

How lucky to have a carpenter as your mate. My father was a carpenter too and made my mom lots of furniture. My husband is no good at that kind of thing. And now we're moving and my sewing room is smaller than what I have now. sigh...

Wow - where are you at in Michigan? I want to come over and hang out in your sewing room.

kathymarie 02-15-2011 09:50 AM

I'm impressed, envious and amazed all at once. You and your dh are very talented. I love looking at other sewers/quilters studios...of course it brings home how "not put together" mine is. Inspiration though...thanks for sharing.

LOVE your dog love your room

Melinda in Tulsa 02-15-2011 10:03 AM

I absolutely LOVE your sewing table! Wish my DH could/would build me something like that. But, he is an enabler in any hobby I do, so I guess that counts for something!

jgriinke 02-15-2011 10:26 AM

Maralyn 02-15-2011 10:36 AM

I would never want to leave the room - just have room service for my meals.

ajohn52 02-15-2011 10:51 AM

Gorgeous room! Thought I was going to get kissed by the dog! I even moved back from the screen. :)

Damsel in DisDress 02-15-2011 12:42 PM

Also, my Mid-Arm Bailey....

Of course, Bailey needed to get into the picture!


Wow!! What beautiful work. My favorite wood is oak. I'm saving up for an oak dining room set. I wouldn't mind have a gently used one. Those are the ones with the most character.

Love the cabinet with the thread box on top.

davis2se 02-15-2011 02:04 PM

I'll sign up to be his first wood working job if you want. I would love any of that furniture!!!

NUTMEG10 02-15-2011 03:05 PM

That furniture is just beautiful. Is furniture building your husband's trade. He does beautiful work.

Quilted Horse 02-15-2011 04:11 PM

Beautiful! You are very lucky to have such a talented hubby.

dsb38327 02-15-2011 04:18 PM

Ms Elaine Va 02-15-2011 04:35 PM

How big is your room? I would love to have a room all organized with a place for everything.

JCL in FL 02-15-2011 04:43 PM

Nice room. Is Bailey an OES?

bigsister63 02-15-2011 04:43 PM

Great room! If he gets bored send him my way! Oh ya I have a DH that could do that . I will show him you stuff!

Nettie Phillips 02-15-2011 04:49 PM

Nice. I don't want anyone to see my sewing room. A BIG

He is in the process of finishing his 1932 Ford Roadster. Built it from the ground up.....

I wonder sometimes how people can do all those things! LOL
Imagine....building your own car!

Your DH is a very talented woodworker. Too bad we live so far apart. Not many woodworkers around here. My DH made my sewing cabinet too. Kitchen cabinets, lamps, end tables, even a stereo cabinet when that was the "in thing". DH loves woodworking. Spends hours in his shop, since he retired. He said, he would never use his woodworking skills as a job, then it's not a hobby.

tulip43 02-15-2011 05:34 PM

WOW, a good man to have around.Is that a Go Cutter I saw in the room??
