    That is a really nice room. My area is set up in the basement that has no windows and I'm thinking of doing wall murals, maybe that will brighten and cheer up the space. My space is is rather large because I like to work with stained glass, oil painting, quilting, making candles. I go from one to the other every couple of months it seems.

    I just love that painting you did on the walls.
    Are those stencils and if so where did you get them if you don't mind me asking.

    What a beautiful room. My room is small with no windows. Thats why I Painted it and decorated it the way I did. My husband put up a new light so now I have 3 lights over top of my work space. I do my cutting in the hall way upstairs outside the little room.

    You are so lucky to have a nice size space. someday i will move out of my closet. LOL When I am 80

    Hi Sherri,

    No I did not paint the room a friend did it free hand. I told her I wanted sunflowers and wisteria and that is what I got. Then she got real excited and painted my cat by the door I had a picture on the desk of Winston. She stayed in there for 8 long hours before I could look. She also did the shutter girl by the curtain. My house is full of her paintings she paints on things you would never think of to paint on. Here is Winston my quilty cat.

    Winston is wonderful. He looks like a big, laid back boy who is happiest when he has one eye on you and the other in "nap" mode. Thanks for sharing. :-)

    Winston looks like a very wise quilty cat. I'm sure he gives you good advice. I have a one too. I have limited space so lay my blocks out on the floor. She rearranges them for me. Sometimes her way looks better. :wink:
