checking back, rereading all the good advice. Limeygal, I love going through Ocean Shores just to see all the deer in your yards. and be glad they are there and not here 
What I did was pitch the TV we never use out of the quilt room into the living room which we also never use, which opened up a big space, so in front of the windows I have my '46 White Rotary on the left, the Singer treadle in the middle, and the Singer 404 on the right. Happy daze! As close to sewing outside as I can get with those machines
thanks again for the responses
