    What a Studio please this is not a room ha ha I wish everyone would think of it that way because you are ALL Artists.

    Wonderful use of space and organization. You maximized every inch and to your advantage.

    Doesn't it make it much easier to have a wonderful time sewing/crafting/knitting in lyur space when you know where everything is and everyhting is in it's place?

    Haven't you also found, because you know where everything is, you spend less money on stuff you don't need? What a difference you have made.

    Quiltin- lady,
    I have to ask you about your white sewing table. I think I have the same one and I've had trouble with vibrations when I am sewing fast on it. Is that why you have that extra piece of wood under your machine? I'd really love to have your ideas/tips on how to use it effectively, if you don't mind.
    Thanks for posting,

    No problem! (goodness, you have sharp eyes! :lol: )

    We added the wood piece to raise the machine up because it wouldn't stay at the proper height to match the insert. Had to add a couple of thin metal washers on the side nearest me as shims to get the sewing arm completely flush, but it works.

    I, too, had terrible problems with the machine moving around, particularly when I was sewing long strips (uh, probably faster than I should be...). So my DH drilled a hole in the shelf and the wood piece and added a long bolt that went through both to the hole on the bottom of the machine (for just that purpose).

    Voila -- it's now steady as a rock. :thumbup:

    Love your sewing room! The wall bed is really cool too. I love the way you have your fabric and all your "stuff" organized. I'm green with envy1
