We are building a house and it's getting close to being done except for trimwork and my quilting studio. (Go figure! Apparently the kitchen and bathroom ranks higher!) I have a 20x18ish space that I've done massive amounts of planning for. It's drywalled and ready to have the 14x4ft closet shelves installed. I want 12inch deep shelves for fabric. I've measured my folded FQ's to get that size. Some shelves will be deeper for larger amount's of fabric. Bolts of batting will be at the end of the closet. The shelves will start above the multiple rolling carts with drawers. My design wall(s) will be on the big sliding closet doors. I've planned a space for sewing, cutting table, (make sure your's is the correct height), ironing tabletop, (table for storage with a padded top for ironing), bookshelves for quilting books and a comfy chair. The LA (A1 machine) has it's own space with shelves for design books, thread, dry erase board, and bobbin winder. Have LOTS of good light and a smooth floor, great for rolling chairs and easy clean up. Hope this isn't too long and you get some ideas from this. Make the space work for you and your needs. I'll post a pic when the room is done.
