Thanks LOL. It's been a struggle to focus on unpacking and setting up house instead of wallowing in the bliss of having all my sewing stuff out and easy to access... and I'm starting to lose the battle... LOL :lol:

If you go to my site http://www.patrickthomson.com/krisquilt.html you can see pictures of the way I wish my quilt room now looked.....When my husband designed our "final", I hope, home the specifically designed this room for my sewing studio........It now looks completely cluttered, but I know where almost everything is........

At some of the LQS classes I have seen people put the "spongy" shelf-liner material under their machines to lessen the vibrations. I also learned that the vibrations really effect the BSR if one is using that. I haven't tried using this yet- Only because i keep forgetting about it- LOL-- But now maybe I can remember to give it a try.

Congratulations on your new home CJ!

You could get some plastic drawer sets, and put wood on top so it is flush with your table perhaps?

I have a bouncy table too - how do you deal with it? I just turned down my speed, but sometimes I want to go full tilt. :?

Yes the tables are the pits, but I have my machine on the very end so the bounce is pretty minimal, it's just a temporary solution thank heavens.

LOL still in Russellville AR. They renewed hubby's contract for another 6 years, and I said "That's it! I need a house"!

Well we are no longer in the RV, having bought a house a couple of months ago. We looked and looked, and had a terrible time finding anything we liked, and I ended up with another teensy sewing room, but it's definitely bigger than the RV! :lol:

Once I figure out how I want it set up (tough at only 12'x9') I'll probably bring in a cabinet maker to build cabinets for my machines. (maybe, still up in the air on that). I'm currently using my old Koala cabinet (it survived 4 years in storage) and 2 six foot banquet tables.

Oh for a sewing studio!

Look later on there is a whole category just dedicated to this topic -- and since I am "old" and my memory is shot (it was never good) I can't remember the exact category I will come back and edit when I find it if I don't forget. lol Ann P.S. it is under scrap bag topics my sewing space. My shortterm memory redeemed it self and I remembered to do this edited once by Ann to add information.
