    My room is 10x12 - not sure if that qualifies for tiny, put it certainly felt that way till last week. The bed doesn't help, but I'm not ready to give it up. My husband just modified a table for my Babylock Jane (love!). Did some rearranging and now I'm so happy with my space. It's not beautiful, but it works for me!

    10x12 wow! I would love to have so much room.
    CoventryUK I love how you use your space so well. I plan to add shelves just like yours.

    I am currently a closet quilter.
    My sewing room is tiny it is 5'10 by 4'10 walk in closet.
    My Fabric stash is stored in a 3' by 2' closet in another room. Very convenient

    Intimistic, i agree, size is sometimes a matter of perspective. My space doesn't actually fit in the "tiny" category, maybe to some it would be considered small, though. For many, many years was sewing space was my sewing cabinet in the family room - not ideal at all! You make great use of the space you have. And the quilts I can see look beautiful!

    I sew on an ikea table in my bed room. I have an old dresser in the closet for my fabric and an idea cube set up for other sewing stuff. I would love to have a dedicated room.
    Here is a picture of my sewing desk.
