[quote=miholmes]Okay....some people are blessed with an acctual ROOM to dedicate to this addition called quilting. I was told I could use the basement.... :cry:
Oh my gosh!! It's wonderful!! I wish we had basements (or even attics) here in Florida. If we did maybe I could have something like you have. I love it! And just think of all the space! You even have a big tv. Congrats!!! 8-) |
OK. I want a room like yours. I quilt in the corner of my living room. God bless. Penny

NO! NO! Don't paint the knotty pine!!!! It is beautiful. I love wood and find it a shame to paint stuff as lovely as this. What a great room.

looks wonderful to me..nice and roomy. i like the pine walls..i think it's my age..lol...congratuations on a sewing room just for you.. :thumbup:
|
I love your sewing room, it's roomy and well organized. Where is your fabric stash? I have 2 large bookcases filled with fabric organized by color (somewhat). I love being able to leave a project out at the end of the day. I cllean the whole room after finishing a project! Happy sewing.
|
It's way more than I have, nice space.
|
Well, I for one am very jealous!
And even though knotty pine goes in and out of vogue, I wouldn't paint it! Wish I could say I had a room like yours! I don't even have a basement! |
Not much??? Can you see how green with envy most of us are? What a wonderful room. Just watch out for the humidity... it will ruin everything.
|
Thats awesome, and I have a room dedicated to my 'hobbies', not nearly as large as yours, enjoy!!
|
love your room! lots of space
|
I like the knotty pine. What a great quilting cave!!!!! Wish I had that much room.
|
You and Eddie mucst be related. Your sewing rooms look perfect!!! Very neat and organized. Love your space.
|
Your space is awesome! I want to come over and quilt with you!
|
What a wonderful space - and room for friends, too! You lucky person! I love the knotty pine, it just gives that comfy cabin kinda feel to a room.

The pine reminds me of my grandmother's house on Lake Guntersville in Alabama. It takes years to get that patina. I agree that if it just isn't for you, you should try to remove it carefully and sell it. The older pines just aren't there anymore so the grain isn't as nice as I am sure you have there. Salvage an profit!

Looks good to me!

Michael, as I was reading your description, I was expecting something so different! I know it is probably not what you consider a perfect sewing room, but I would be so excited to have all that room. The wood walls are so warm and rich. I know it must be great to have a private place in which to sew; and be able to just walk out and leave it would be wonderful.
You must be having a great time in your room. Now, get busy and put some beautiful quilts on those warm knotty pine walls! |
I would love to have all that room! Enjoy!
|
I love your space...but do not touch the knotty pine. Really...it will help with resell...

Keep the Knotty Pine. It's all coming back in a few years. I'd happily trade my drywall for your Knotty Pine in my sewing room. Besides, it's a very manly finish!

So I've been trying to get things put together for awhile. It's nothing beautiful....it's not a decorating triumph....but when I look at it I sigh a happy sigh, knowing I can have all my things setup and can leave them setup. Anyway this is a hodge podge of items left over from when we purchased our new house. The previous owner passed away and they left most of the possesions in the house. It's a combination of old kitchen tables and and island from the kitchen before we remodeled it (which btw works GREAT as a cutting table). Old lamps, etc....but hey nice to be able to repurpose it instead of putting it in the landfill. :) I still want to paint the knotty pine (the entire basement, and kitchen were knotty pine)And someday I will drywall the basement and make it more of an acctual from....but right now I want to spend that money on a frame to put on the opposite wall :) At first I was kinda not excited about having the basment, but I am able to spread out, and it's nice and cool in the summer here. Anyway here it is....not much but I LOVE it! :) Jan in VA |
NEAT!
