    Terri .... Why I would lov to come over there if you have gotten rid of that lizzard and whatever that wierd goul was outside at night! :twisted:

    Reneebobby ... Thanks that is my sewing apron. LoL! It was really fun to make, but I love to sew on bias trim. I know, twisted thinking, but, you see I love the "fingerwork" as a gal once called it in North Carolina. It is quiet and homey to sit and stitch.

    Ok ok that fabric stash is in the double door closet and in another bedroom's closet. It is somewhat organized, but I need some shelving or plastic drawers for it. I still sew clothing and home deco, so it is mounting faster than I can get to it. LoL! Please don't ask me to show it until I get it a little more organized, ok? Thanks ....

    The little oak chest is full of patterns ... That is all patterns. Every kind. I love patterns. Old and new.

    The drawers under the quilting table have finished tops, threads, bobbins embelishments, needles and the like in them. All quilting stuff.

    k3n ... Ummm I think they would end up on the floor or draped back over the table. He wouldn't let me get away with that for sure! Good thinking though.

    gcathie ... when I get it a little more organized I will show it. I promise. It is in the closets. LoL!

    Red, I also like to at least start off tidy - everything laid out, lined up with precision - but I always end up messy!

    Oh RG....if you go thru old posts of mine, you will see a room that is in such shambles, it's embarrassing. My room doesn't look as bad now since I changed rooms and have a bit more space. Still not taking pics of mine until I have it all done. By that time, I'll be having the packers coming in to pack me up to move! lol

    Your space is beautiful! I love the organized look. I find I can only really relax at sewing if there is nothing I need to tidy up. I get distracted by the mess.
    You have a beautiful big window. My sewing room is in the basement, and though it's a bright room, the window is small and I would love to have more natural light.
    When my daughter leaves home (she's only nine, and I am thinking way too far ahead here) I will convert her upstairs bedroom into my sewing room. Lots of light and space for all of my stuff. Then I will even have room for a quilting frame and machine! I'd better start saving - I have only about nine years to save up!

    I love your room pictures but I won't be inviting you to share my space for awhile. Right now my 'stuff' is strewn from the kitchen table, to the son's bedroom and ALL over my bedroom (working on the bridge to the bed now!) Since my Roy's stroke I've had a tough time getting to the machine so I've learned to live in clutter.

    I'll invite you one day when I have everything straightened up, Promise. I do get it straight when I can but we have to make choices sometimes, don't we?
    Hugs,
    Sharon
