My Sewing Room.
Oh, that sounds so exciting. When my son moved out and got married, I
hurried and redid his room into a nice purple -- just explained that if things didn't work out and he came back home that he would be sleeping in the beautiful purple and pansy guest room. He hasn't come home yet, tee hee. Love in Stitches, Coleen "Nocturnal" wrote in message ... After reading a post about a sewing room I thought I would tell you all about mine. My DD decided to work in the UK 3 years ago. GREAT ! The day after she flew out I sold her bed, moved the wardrobe out to the garage and boxed up all the stuff she left here and put it all in the wardrobe, out of sight out of mind! Her bedroom has been my sewing room for the last 3 years. Trouble is, it is not very roomy and now I have bought a quilting frame I NEED MORE SPACE ! I have decided to build a carport out the front, take out the garage roll door and put in a nice sliding glass door, Pretty curtains as well! I have already asked my son in law to plaster the walls so I can paint them to make it brighter and I will put a nice flooring over the concrete. But first I will have to errect a new garden shed to transfer all hubbys garbage so I can have the garage. The beer fridge will have to stay though but that can take up a small corner. I could always cover it with a nice quilt to make it compatable with the new sewing room.... Then I move in, My sewing tables and machines can stay put at all times and the quilting frame doesn't have to be packed away everytime I have finished using it. Hubby said "What do you want another sewing room for? you already have one! " He just doesn't understand! Only trouble is as the boat is in the other driveway, " MY " car will be under the carport, my sons car is out side on the road, Hubby will just have to find somewhere else to park ! Oh by the way....DD phoned yesterday and told me she is thinking of coming back home to live.......FAT CHANCE ! |

My DD moved out, the equipment moved in!! The only delay was for DH to
paint while it was relatively empty. I chose an off-white, to introduce NO color (Had I chosen purple, her favorite color, I would be risking having DD move back in!) It is wonderful having everything permanently in it's place and readily accessible. Those of us who spent years sewing on the table, clearing things away to feed the children, can really appreciate having our own room! Best of luck with the addition of more space.
