    Great job on the room! So fun to see. Wonderful work space and display space.
    It is too bad some get too much water and some never enough. We are just right for rainfall this spring. Everything is growing like crazy. Keep us update as your room progresses.

    Nice orderly herd - I wish I had a room to hide in and do stuff...

    Don't know where we stand with rainfall here in W WA, but it's WAY, WAY too hot!!!! Got a breather today but more of the hot stuff coming next week. Ugh.

    I think we have had rain every day in June. Well maybe one or two days we only had sprinkles. 2 more inches today and tomorrow.

    Oh and I love how organized your room looks.

    Your machines really stand out nicely against the light colored walls. Nice work space also.

    I love your room! It looks huge. I love how you have your machines up on the wall, but as another California person all I can think of is how much it'd hurt to have one land on me! They look great, though. DH and I have been considering doing something similar, but we'd have to strap the machines down somehow. I bet you enjoy being in that room very much, though!

    It is dry and supposed to be roasting hot here the next few days. California is going to dry up and blow away!

    Beautiful machines and I like the way you let others see your collection. We are in flood stage now and can't drive out, the road is completely under here with the Illinois River in Kampsville IL. All our water is headed down toward LA. Each time we shove a tree away from our property, I say Go to LA and down to the Gulf, don't stop ! More rain today and crest stage is set for Wednesday (I hope).

    Looks great. Hope they are secure. Wouldn't want them to fall down on you.

    I don't know what you idea is, but when I first saw it, I thought: hang another shelf under that one. You could put more machines or stacks of fabric on the lower shelf.
