Corey 386 Report post Posted September 21, 2013 My prayer is answered. After dreaming & hoping, my DH & I signed the contract with Four Seasons to build my studio. 12 feet by 25 to house my Millenium & Longarm gizmos only. One of our bedrooms is still my fabric room & finished quilts storage. The cement was poured 2 weeks ago, the bamboo flooring were purchased yesterday & we are scheduled to be done by the 1st week of Dec. It is going to be attached to the back of the house, next to the patio facing the backyard overlooking my garden. No more customers coming inside our house. 14 lilly:), meg, LindaSteller and 11 others reacted to this Quote Corey Starkey IQ & Bllissed Millennium Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Liam 434 Report post Posted September 21, 2013 Congratulations Corey, be sure to post pictures when your studio is completed!! I wish I had room for a nice studio to house everything! Right now my longarm is in one bedroom and my fabric and other goodies are housed in two other bedrooms. I have been seriously thinking about filling in my indoor pool and converting that room into my studio; the kids are all grown now and the pool doesn't get used much anymore. 1 Heritage Keepsakes reacted to this Quote Be Yourself, Everyone Else is Already Taken.

Corey 386 Report post Posted October 30, 2013 I am waiting patiently for the studio construction. Talked to the builder yesterday, building materials are all delivered @ their warehouse, tentative date of actual construction from start to finish is 2 weeks, target finish date is 2nd week of December. We leave for Marysville, Ohio December 14 & return to CA the 31st, so it will be tight schedule, I don't mind it that much as long as I have my Longarm Studio built @ reasonable time. Will have to take pics of the cement slab foundation to start with. Quote Corey Starkey IQ & Bllissed Millennium Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DoryJM 76 Report post Posted March 23, 2014 That's a great size for your studio. Mine is 13 by about 22, so very similar. I have plenty of room (although who wouldn't want more??), but I LOVE it!! Having my own space is so perfect. I have a door to the outside, but no path around to the back where customers would enter yet. Consequently, I'm still clean like a madwoman whenever someone is coming over. Hope to have the path by late spring...then my house can stay a mess!! Congrats and be sure to post pics!!!!!

LindaSteller 353 Report post Posted March 23, 2014 How exciting, Corey! I sounds like you will have a space similar in size to mine, without the rectangle out of the floor where the stairway comes up! There is nothing like having space dedicated to your quilting machine and all the other stuff you can cram in there!
