I had a very hard time hearing what you are saying when you are turned away from the camera, even with full volume. Some things I could not decipher even with repeated playing of the video. But the "visitor"/videographer's voice, with the volume up, is way too loud when it should be just background. If you could use a pin-on mic and turn off the mic at the camera, the video would be more understandable.

Loved the tour of your studio, Louie is adorable! I'm getting ready to "reorganize" my entire sewing room - great inspiration seeing yours...

Happy New Year!

I was excited to read about better lighting for my studio, then disappointed that you would entice us to read an issue that is "out of stock" and therefore unavailable.

Some great ideas there Pokey. Nice you have so much space and facilities. This will help me with my planning of a studio space.

I too am blessed with a large studio area but I seem to be overwhelmed by it. Seeing how yours is organised has inspired me to set to work and make it as user friendly as yours! Thanks for the tour.

Ooh, studio envy! But I feel so accomplished in that I, too, have vertical storage for my cutting mats! Still, that wet studio space... *sigh*...

Thanks for the tour. I love to see other studios. We will be building a new house soon. I am trying to decide where to put my studio. Does it bother you to be away from the main part of the house (over the garage)? Can you hear the door bell or people moving around inside the house? Would you rather be on the main floor? Have you ever had a studio in the basement? If so, how did you feel about it?

I hope this is not too many questions. I am having quite a struggle over the cost of a large studio and my need for space.

Nice studio!

I'm hoping to winterize my studio with quilted window shades using warm window pre-quilted fabric layers.

Thanks, Pokey. I'm in NY so I know exactly what you mean about needing more light.

I'd love to have a big place like yours but my house is almost 100 years old and I don't have a garage to build onto. <sigh>

Love the studio and learning about your process for staying motivated. That is very helpful. I think that I could use some color therapy. Changing out fabric in hoops is an awesome idea. I also love that you have souvenirs from the fabulous artists you meet in your work. And, the locker baskets are fun and a good reminder to keep moving.

Love seeing your studio! I'm trying not to covet your sunshine coming in, the frig in your studio, or your HQ16.

Wonderful tour and I like your idea of having something out ready to work on in the evenings.
