    The one thing I would dearly love is a design wall to preview the placement of blocks before sewing them into rows. I have seen several renditions of this lately: One was a pull down screen type flannel 'wall' that raised and lowered like a window shade. I also saw sliding closet doors that were padded and wrapped in flannel. I would love an 8x8 foot area that was permanent. What a joy that would be!!! The other members have covered all my other 'must haves'! Congratulations on your new quilting studio!!! Barb

    I don't have a 'sewing room' but I am like you..... my mind is full of the things I'd love to have. The large table....... the one for batting ..... etc...... how about some drawers there for scissors and rotary cutters..... and rulers. I have a friend who uses those huge glass jars (sold at Wmart for flour... anyway the biggest ones) for scraps and they are so pretty and colorful on the shelves. I agree.... you need a tv..... lol.
    I'm positive whatever you and your hubby choose will be perfect. Please do share photos as you go along. Best of luck hon

    I would love a design wall to preview my blocks before I sew them together. It's hard to get the right perspective when you lay them on the floor or on the bed. My DH is willing to hook me up in his hunter's safety rig and suspend me via pulley over my quilt blocks like a giant spider, but so far I've resisted the offer!! Seriously, I think a design wall would be a wonderful addition to your new quilting studio. Barb
