I absolutely LOVE how transparent you are about prices ! I am NOT a professional that makes what a Doctor makes, but, I appreciate that you are so transparent on costs and NEVER look down on folks who can't afford what you can ! We all have our own paths, & you are always kind & clear that costs do NOT "make the maker", 'making' does !

Seconding! I love how you're so low-key and no-judgment about it -- it can be hard to talk/hear about money without it being stressful and you totally manage it! I especially appreciate it from you because I'm often thinking about how I can take some of the ideas I get from your channel and apply them to my own making, and hearing how much things you're using cost gives me a concrete frame of reference so I can consider what's affordable for me while I'm thinking about my own potential projects.

Since you are going to need to 'redesign' your sewing room; I'll offer an idea that a friend of mine that lives in Singapore has done. Her sewing room work table is built like a murphy bed--- the table folds into a wall cabinet. Her sewing machine sits on a table that is also a murphy bed-- you can see that design on youtube in places where the folded up position is a computer desk (hers is the sewing machine table) and then when you 'pull it down' the work table becomes the footing of a fold down twin bed. Just an idea to give you more working area in a smaller space.

It was such a sweet gesture and you are clearly an excellent team. My father said that marriage is like three ships: Courtship, Friendship and Partnership. You clearly have 3 very strong and sturdy ships in your marriage. Sending lots of good vibes and blessing on your move the New Jersey. You’ll be my neighbor I hope as I live in NYC.

What a dream sewing room! I had a fairly nice one when I was renting a flat from my girlfriend’s mom and I used the front sitting room as my sewing room. Lots of room for a big cutting table which doubled as my sewing table (a dining room table with extension from IKEA). Now in my own house, my sewing room is also my office (I work from home) with hardly any room for sewing. 😢. I hope your new home in New Jersey will have a big enough room for all your needs! 😊

This is like a dream sewing room. Beautiful. I wish I could have a big room like this and if we ever move I will make sure we do. Currently I have taken over our formal dining room (which we never need) for my sewing/altar room. However, I have gotten a bigger machine and I always end up cutting larger pieces either on the floor or dining room table since my folding cutting table is not big enough. It would be nice to have this much space dedicated to costuming and crafts. Have a great move!
