Finally Finished!

The studio that is!

The Room is an "L" shape and I'm standing at the corner looking towards the Exercise end.

When it's too cold, too hot or too allergy ridden I tote my bike (Annie) down the stars and put her in a trainer.  It's boring but works.  There's also a rowing machine and a TV.  Enough rug on the floor to do my stretches and exercises learned from therapy as well as a small tv to do exercise videos with.

I haven't used it lately, must get back to that!

Quinn's enjoying the rugs in the toy area!

She also likes to play down here as there's quite a bit of open space.

Most of all she loves that it is cooler down there.

Looking the other way is the doll house and all the stuff I've accumulated for finishing it off.

Boy, that yellow is really bright!

I need to get a book on making windows and doors next.

You can also see Grace the treadle machine, the design wall and my rocker-currently the only place to sit that isn't in front of a sewing machine!

Then looking back towards the door you can see the other leg of the "L"

This area is dedicated to sewing!

I know I could fix an ironing area closer to the machines but I need the steps and sitting too long isn't healthy. 

 The small blue tote on the floor holds fabric pieces to cut into strips.

These two IKEA cabinets hold all but two small boxes of my fabric.

The one on the right has fat quarters and panels in it organized by color and strips I've cut from leftover pieces.  Much easier to store that way and easier to use.

The cabinet on the left has larger pieces of fabric and serves as my cutting area.

That's Brayden's Trip being cut. (Only two more colors!)

The two electric machines I use.

Jaley the Janome is used for piecing those quarter inch seams.

Bella the Bernina is for doll clothes and other non-quilting sewing and for quilting.

(Still need to try that stitch regulator out!)

Each 4 foot table has a small cabinet next to it that holds the flotsam and jetsome of sewing.

There is a small antique sewing table between the two-currently holding the board I use for the next block but I expect to set Jaley off on it so I can cross-stitch there.

Above the table is a piece of muslin covered insulation board to hold stuff-there's currently A block for Kolby's trip on it and I use it to hold the doll clothes pattern pieces once they've been ironed.

Both machines have Ott lights next to them-I love those things!

Eventually, I may decide to do something to the floor but for now I think I'll just collect some more cheap pieces of carpeting!
