As a result, I am crammed into a small alcove off the kitchen. I think I might just gradually move some stuff in there (like maybe a cutting table) and see if he notices-what do ya think??

I am so jealous of those with actual rooms for their creative activities! I have my machine and notions in the dining/computer room, cutting area, stash and ironing board in the living room, and storage bins and patterns in the basement!
Now we are about to move into a considerably smaller house, and I have no idea where it's all going to go!

I don't have pics of mine, but you all make me feel better about my own! LOL!!!! I'm in desperate need of more shelf/drawer space that it's pitiful. My cutting table is buried under stacks of stuff. I use my dining room table as my cutting table these days.
After Christmas, I MUST get in there and put up more shelves / get more storage space, etc.

Oh, drat, I forgot to rotate the hall corner
Does it count that I'm in a wheelchair and can stand for less than a minute at a time? Hubby doesn't have time to help---nor the patience. What I intend to do is hire someone to carry boxes and bins to the bedroom and living room some morning-----------then sort for days---------then hire them to carry stuff back.

The air hockey table may have to go .... it has become the "drop" zone and may collapse if action isn't taken! lol
My 87-year old mother lives nearby and I check on her daily. She also has a sewing room and three bedrooms. Talk about spreading out! lol She has more than 150 hand pieced quilt tops that she'll be leaving for me to finish. When will I have the time or talent???? She has 50 or so already hand pieced and hand quilted that I'll need to find a home for, too.
