This is my “Girl Cave Retreat”. We live in a two bedroom townhouse, and Jerry so graciously allowed me to use this second bedroom for quilting (and with roll-up futons, it is a guest room too.) One wall is dedicated for storing mostly his things, books, and photos—behind the white curtains on the right. It is a mess right now, and anything but calm and restful! An elderly couple in the nearby valley just moved into a senior living facility and their daughter and son were holding an “estate sale” of everything in the house, liquidating years of belongings....their mom was a locally known quilter and crafter. She had a HUGE room full of fabric, quilting supplies, sewing machines, etc., etc., up for sale at “everything must go” prices. I came home with yards and quarter cuts of quality fabric (like Moda and Japanese fabrics). She had tons of plastic storage drawers, so I also bought two sets (seen on the far left in photo.)
I decided to incorporate my existing stash of fabrics with my new haul. Well, NOW I’m in the midst of taking everything out and resorting. What a domino effect!!!. But I’m so grateful to be unexpectedly provided with fabric and storage which is such a surprise gift from God, and within the budget of our fixed income. So hopefully I will get to show you my “after” photo, and record the progress of some of my current quilt projects.

So nice to see your sewing space! It would be hard to pass up such a blessing but I am trying to downsize my sewing stash! I already who is going to take on MY sewingroom when I can't use it anymore!
