    Don't forget to add heat for the cold months.

    How exciting! I'm moving all of my quilting stuff from several locations around the house to an attic room. No air conditioning or heating there now, but I'm tickled pink!

    Wow, that is a great idea! The only thing is Wisconsin gets mighty cold in the winter so we'd have to insulate and heat it too.

    I passed by a place that was selling sheds last week and thought to myself...that would make a great room for quilting!
    Can't wait to see pictures. :thumbup:

    Kathy, it will be insulated and I will have an airconditioner for the summer and a couple of electric heaters for the winter. We don't usually have very many cold days. It did get down in the teens back in January, but nothing like the -31* we had when we lived in Wisconsin! We will "skirt" it before winter to make it look better, help keep the cold wind out as well as animals. In fact, with the skunks coming out

    :shock: , we will probably do it sooner than later!

    I want to do this too. I want to get a small shed to put all my sewing and crafts in so that I can go there to work and not have to be in anyone's way. I am going to talk to someone about rent to own and see what I can work out. It doesn't have to be very big, but I want it to have counter space and shelves.

    Hope you enjoy yours!
