Nope. I quilt for myself and, once in awhile, for friends or for a benefit. It's my pastime and my passion though.

For those of you who have asked questions about the room (and thank you all for your comments) it is over our garage, about 550 square feet. My husband made the sewing cabinets for me a few years ago using stock pre-finished bathroom cabinets from Lowe's. He measured and had the formica countertops made to pull the whole thing together and provide sewing tables at the right height. The shelving is inexpensive unfinished storage shelving that we bought unassembled and put together. And, yes, it's a lovely space to work in and a great retreat. I'm glad you all like it. As to the grandson, I can't say enough good about him. And, yes, he gets the next quilt!

Mariposa 03-25-2011 07:51 PM

Wow! Look at all that space! Your grandson did a fantastic job on the tile and painting! :)

wvdek 03-25-2011 09:08 PM

OMG - A quilters DREAM!!! You are one lucky lady to have this big a room for your quilting (& a nice grandson to help you get it this beautiful. It is FABULOUS. I'll bet nearly every quilter on this board will be envious.

Love the tile, where did you purchase it - does it have a name? - I'm shopping now for tile to re-do a room

Have a blessed week end :thumbup:

Stitchalong 03-26-2011 05:08 AM

What a great room and so bright and cheery. Have fun!
