I'm upstairs too, good exercise if we look at it that way.
Getting the door is a mad dash.
I'm working on hubby to give me the double garage, it's under part of the house, into a nice big sewing room, but I want to buy a long arm and that takes a lot of space. Then we'd build a triple garage which he'd rather have & deeper, and attach it to the side of the house. I don't like having a garage under the upper house. We had kids a year ago, in nice neighborhoods, start cars on fire in garages under the upper level of a house, very bad in double ways.
I'm in the country now, but always think, what if. Plus, just would love to have that super large quilt room :> wish me luck, it be a project a year away yet, he gets a BIG shop first this spring.

This 9x15 tiny little room, about 100 feet from the house. Although I like the location down by the horses, it's just not big enough.

I work in a corner of my dining room. My stash and quilting frame are upstairs in my bedroom. I live in a small house and my grown kids are here too. All my bedrooms are full. :-D :-D :-D

Weeeellllllll, my cottage IS my workspace!
There are a TV and two comfy chairs that make up the "living room", and the rest of the space is for sewing, fabric storage, tool caddies, book shelves, thread chest, etc. The kitchen is at the end of this space, the washer is right in it.
My bedroom and bath, both quite small, are the only rooms that are not my sewing space. Unfortunately the only wall large enough for a decent design wall is in the bedroom, so that will going up as soon as the Military Barracks Quilts Project is more manageable and then I'll truly be living in my studio. :?

Want to see some pictures of it? These were taken before I moved in. Sure wish it were still this neat!!

Jan, that's a great cottage!

My husband and I are full-time RVer's, so I sew on the kitchen table and have my tiny stash stored everywhere -- under the bed and couch mainly. When I need to sandwich a quilt, I can usually go to meeting / game room at the rv park where we are.

I really enjoy hearing about your lovely rooms. Color me green with envy!!!!!!!!!!

When my sons moved to bedrooms in the basement, I took over their bedroom for my sewing/computer/plant starting room. It's been that way ever since - 12 yrs. My machine sits on an old dining room table, which has both it's leaves in and it's at it's largest all the time. My fabric is in large plastic boxes w/ covers, stacked around the perimeter of the room and under the table. One bookcase which is now too small to hold all my quilting books. Many sit in stacks on the floor. My ironing board is up all the time, behind me. I've a window to my right, so I can look out to watch the birds/ squirrels in the crabapple tree. My computer desk is squeezed in between the light stand(which I made) and a dresser which holds misc. sewing supplies inside and a ruler rack on top. My design wall hangs over the closet doors, which is directly in front of my sewing machine. I used to have a twin bed in there for guests, but since we have hide-a-beds and unused beds in the boy's
rooms, that left a bunch of years ago. My space is crowded, but it's mine. My husband rarely ventures in, as the clutter everywhere bothers him. The rest of my house is not cluttered. How can that be?

Used to have most of the basement for sewing and crafts, then daughter and grandson moved in and I moved sewing stuff into small bedroom (not crowded, just overly cozy) Gave up that room when my brother moved in after his stroke a year ago. Now I just have a small corner in my small bedroom. My stash is under my bed, some under my dresser, a couple boxes in closet, some in garage and some in small store room in basement. Oh, heck, there may even be more someplace else; won't know until daughter and grandson move out, hopefully this coming Spring, then I'll have my basement back!!! (just counting the months)

My sewing area is in our basement. I used the dining room for awhile and got tired of moving everything when we needed the dining room. I then moved to the quest bedroom, but that didn't work out well either. I finally gave up and moved everything to the basement. We had some more electrical outlets installed and a light hung over my work table. It certainly isn't fancy, but it works for me!

All over the house :D:D:D
