Wow! all great ideas. My only thing is getting it all set up and then thinking...that might have been better over there and this over here. So maybe set it up somehow before nailing it all in place sort of idea.

Lighting, lighting, lighting. That said, I couldn't live without my cutting table and my ironing table (which subs as a second cutting table when necessary). My ironing table is one of those crafting tables you can buy at Joanns, both leaves stay up and I ordered a custom ironing board cover for it, one of the best purchases I ever made. Can never have too much ironing space!

4. Fabric storage that will protect fabric from sunlight and dust
5. Ditto for thread storage
6. Computer with internet and a printer
7. IPOD player
8. Flat screen with dvd and/or cable
9. Dorm size (or larger) microwave
10. Dorm size (or larger) fridge
Enjoy designing your new space and post pics when its done.
