Sewing room progress
We moved twice in three years, and in the process lost a part of the frame for our quilter. I looked in several places and had almost given up hope when a shop owner in Washington came through for me and shipped me the part. It arrived last week and I spent all day Saturday in the sewing room putting the frame up, organizing, and cleaning. We still want to hang curtains and put some art on the walls but it’s 95% done!
I have a new table for ironing waiting to be assembled, and toolbox on the way. The room has two walk-in closets. One has fabric, and the other has machines, tools, and batting. I’m debating if I want to move a bookshelf in here. There is room behind one of the closet doors. I could have all the books in there, and also stack some decorative stuff like jelly rolls and charm packs. You can see our project list on the big white board. I don’t think we will ever be caught up!
I also have another item on the way. A major splurge that my wife insisted on buying. It was supposed to arrive today but I guess it will be late. That will probably be my next post.
Thanks for looking

Lovely space, good light. I would be cautious about filling it up though, two people working in there will require room to move around and space for all the stations us quilters require. Enjoy the process of setting it up, enjoy your time in the space, and be open to possible rearranging once you get into the space and start working in it. I moved 18 months ago myself, and have had to rearrange a few pieces in my sewing space as I worked in it since the original set up. IMHO, all that is needed now is a design wall with all that wall space.......☺️
