    Bev, thanks for your post. At my age, a sense of humor is my greatest asset! They say people who laugh are healthier and live longer 'n I want to laugh my way to a very long life!! One of the reasons I love this Forum is the humor and fun found here, it's a spirit lifter, doncha think? Check my pics from earlier, I posted a few.

    B, I know exactly what you mean! Your vivid description had me in stitches to say the least, I should talk though. You should have seen me and the Hubs tackling and rearranging my sewing area...........ROFL! I'll even bet we most likely used the same words when we got out of bed the next day! I am really impressed by all the information you put up, especially the Customer Service y'all received. Sounds like this company has their act together. Pictures were great and y'all did a marvelous job!

    Loved your pix and descriptions! Yes, humor is the best medicine (maybe you read Readers Digest). And I love that you quote your Dad. Me, too. He had so many sayings and sometimes situations come up today that bring them to mind. Anyway, love the armoire so far. Will love to see your projects in progress on it. Keep up the good work. Hope you have a heating pad or a hot water bottle for those muscles, Bev

    Thanks all my Forum friends . . . creating my sewing space has been lots of fun and sharing it with ya'll has made it more special. I've still got a lot of 'setting up' to do . . . and that'll be "the icing on the cake"!!! So here's the grand finale . . . it's more than I hoped for and I'm lovin' it!!

    FINALLY, IT'S HERE, A REAL SEWING SPACE FOR ME!!-img_2514.jpg FINALLY, IT'S HERE, A REAL SEWING SPACE FOR ME!!-img_2515.jpg FINALLY, IT'S HERE, A REAL SEWING SPACE FOR ME!!-img_2516.jpg

    We did have one little glitch, the shelves at the upper right (you'll see they're missing) were just a hair too wide - gotta see if I can get 'em replaced with proper size. Even if not, my Mr. can probably shave 'em down to fit - so it's all good.

    I do have a question - does anyone have a good suggestion for a proper sewing chair/stool that won't empty my pocket book? The new SM, "Hazel" be her name, and the sewing cabinet . . I've named the cabinet "Hazel's Place" has been a bit of a budget buster . . . but a girl's still gotta have somethin' to sit on. Any ideas out there?

    Go try on some office chairs for size and comfort. You can get one of those and always leave the arms off as most sewing chairs come with no arms.

    I found my office chair at Sams Club. I left the arms off. You actually need to sit in the chair and find one that is comfortable for you.
