Hi Mary,

I'm another barefoot quilter in Washington ! A couple years ago we
remodeled the downstairs family room and turned it into my sewing room.
Our house is split level and the windows are ground level. Because half
the walls are below ground, it is always cold down there. It was dark
with dark paneling on the lower half and dark, ugly carpet with a big
wood stove taking up way too much real estate. We pulled out the wood
stove, painted all the paneling and put down Pergo. I love the ease of
cleaning it. Just mop the dog hair and threads up. When I drop my dish
of pins like I tend to do on at least a weekly basis, they're a cinch
to pick up with the magnet. No more pins getting caught in the carpet.
I did put a runner on both sides of the cutting table so I don't slide
around when I've just got socks on. We also installed more than double
the lighting and big huge shelving units from Ikea that will have to be
disassembled if we ever move. Here are some very outdated pictures of
the before and mostly after. One of these days I should get motivated
and clean it up and take newer pictures......
