OMG YES!!! I have a wonderful sewing room in the lower level of my home where I keep everything for sewing and embroidering. But I love sewing in my dining room. It is very bright in there, the TV is nearby, I can see outside and I am just so much more comfortable there. So I know how you feel. Recently bought three vintage machines in cabinets and they are all in my dining room and it is so much fun jumping from one to the other with different projects. Don't have to change threads and bobbins and all that stuff so can keep many things going at once.
