Also, can you swing the tables, just like they are but with your back to the window so you would have the natural light over your shoulder?
That might be even better, and you can see your door- better for Fung Shui!!!! No one can can up behind you!! :lol: :lol:

I like them back to back if there's really good light...love that crackled desk. I can't believe you could do it in one day...took me 3 weeks! See "Off to a good start" I posted. You are brave, I didn't post before pics...your room looked good compared to mine. Isn't it great feeling like you can breathe and create again? I just shut my mind most the year & just focus on creating...all the clutter is not really condusive to being creative unless you shut your mind! Enjoy it!

I knew your machine would look great in front of those windows :) The trouble with straightening out one area is it always makes the rest look bad. I applaud your accomplishment today. I also spent today hoeing out my sewing room.

It is hard to quilt & sew & let the creative juices flow when it is a cluttered mess.
I'm getting ready to start pulling everything out of the room. Furniture, exercise equipment, junk, everything! Then I'm going to put back only the necessities, rearrange the furniture, and then get rid of the crap, I mean non-necessary things, that is left.
I took some before pictures. Somebody send the search & rescue squad if I don't reappear later today with finished pictures okay?
