fly these ideas across hubbys radar and see how quick that extra room is built !
I sew in my kitchen. In my living room I have two computer armoirs without the shelves and have storage bins with my fabric separated by color and the small slots hold the other items. I use my built in stove top for my ironing board, unless I have large pieces and then I bring out the ironboard. I use my kitchen table as my cutting board and sewing area as we eat in the living room every day anyway. It is a bit messy but you make do with what you have. When I get company I put everything in the armiores and close the doors and no one sees anything.
