    You might put plant hanger hooks in the ceiling, hang chain from them, then put your quilt on a sleeve. I hope that sounds right to you

    Comfy-cozy was my first thought while looking at your photos. You have a wonderful quilt studio to get lost in while making your creations.

    love it

    I love your room, hard to believe it's out here in CA. Don't see many homes like that. It looks so cozy, had a cousin with a bedroom like that. We always played in those tiny closets. Looking at that brought back memories, thanks for sharing.

    Annaquilts-this is my suggestion. Move your sofa and chair onto the carpet, face the TV but bring your TV onto the carpet also. Put the 2 drawer chests back to back and protecting the surfaces, put a top on them to make a cutting center unless it is too high. Have peg boards, again with protection, down both sides of the chests. Hang all your goodies on there, or even baskets available now. Then in both window areas, make long desk/areas the height you want, and get those 6" deep drawer plastic units on wheels and slide them under. They hold folded fabric/fat quarters nicely. Put that dining room table behind the sofa, making a sewing area. When working on something large, drape it over the back of the sofa. Get rods, like curtain rods, and put them on the ceiling in the area where the TV is. Or you can put the rods the whole way across the dormer area. Whatever it on the rods will hang straight down. Another suggestion - open the doors on that
    tall unit, put a bar with a "U"-type groove in it to hold the doors open and you have an instant display area. My friend has almost the same room. Her stairwell is open and she drapes quilts over the banisters. Good luck. I would love it myself.

    Design wall; Have your DH or a friend make a frame on wheels with peg board covered with a flannel sheet and if you need more stability put a board on back that opens like an easel support. Hope this helps. Like your room.
