Did anyone see the episode this morning on HGTV about organizing the sewing room? The room was 12' x12' and she had a 4' x 8' work table in the middle. They took that out and cut it down it a bit. Not really a problem, she wasn't a quilter and the size they gave her will work fine for what she does and with the original size in the middle of the room you had to stand sideways to get around it or crawl under it to get to the storage closet. They did a really good job culling (didn't make her toss the stash and goodies) and organizing, making things easy to see and access and a nice spot for the machine and ironing board BUT......why in the world would you cover a nice hard surfaced floor in a sewing room with an 8' x 10' area rug, no matter how well it coordinates with newly painted purple walls, that is going to have pins, needles, threads and scraps stuck and hiding in it? Things that make you go hmmmmm.
