I was originally thinking of making yards and yard to trim the skirts and whatnot....uh......no. But it's cute anyway! I'll do it for some larger-scale project down the road.
The original idea was to do a strip and attach as guards, like so:

Finally! The sewing room is ready to go!
And vacuumed, to boot! I can't wait to start a new project!
The bank of sewing machines...
My cutting table and a peek of the closet of fabric....
Finally! All my sewing supplies neatly organized on shelves!
Another view of the sewing machines and table...
Looking in from the door...And Holly, I got stools with a back, just for yooooou!
Mmmmm......fabric.......
