I stitch here...(photo heavy)

When we bought our house, the sewing room and the workshop were both major decisions as to why we chose this one. We also really liked the rest of the house and location, LOL!

The first picture is the closet under the stairs, where I have a bookcase with baskets of stash! This is the chair where DH sits, (next to the antique thread cabinet that holds my beads) with the cat laying on the pillows.
There is also another thread cabinet on the old ice box. It holds the DMC perle cottons in 3,5, and 12's. The icebox holds fabrics and wool threads. The bookcase next to it holds books and the tall cabinet at the end holds magazines. The small case at the very end holds some of my antique sewing collectibles.

This is one end of the countertop, with thread boxes above.


This is the other end of the countertop and the four rotation projects sit next to TV. In the cabinets and drawers below, I keep such things as stretcher bars, light box, UFO's, paints, and such.




This is the my actual stitching table, frame, and another cabinet for needles, magnets, etc. Some of the extra scissors, fobs, etc, hang from the old coat rack which also has some of the hatpin collection.

This is a shot of the shelves where the thread boxes are stored. I picked up the boxes on ebay on two different auctions a long time ago! The plastic ones are from Target.

If all the housework is done, this is where I can be found!
Thanks, Barbara for asking where we stitch!
