- The work done for this video is not the "not-so-fun" parts of building, but man, am I super excited it's done! One of the most important things I need for my sewing studio is, of course, electricity! In this video, you'll see me digging a trench for the wire, go over some design ideas and progress, and share what this project means to me in this moment. Thank you all SO much for your continued support and encouragement! I can't wait to share my quilting studio with you!

Not only will you have a quilting studio...you'll also get to have your bedroom back as just a bedroom! A place to relax and decompress 😊 Win, win!
Yes! It’s going to be so nice. I won’t know what to do with all that space! 😂💖
Good morning! I get tired just watching you😊. Sadly, I can no longer tackle big projects like this.
This note is for your Dad: You should be Soooo proud of Miriam (and of yourself and her Mom for raising this amazing woman). You remind me so much of my Dad it brings tears to my eyes. Much luck and love to you all💕
@lindaquinn2404. My mom often used the phrase "I get tired just watching". I think the same of the free yardwork and cleaning people I watch. They go the extra mile and some go many extra miles at one place. I say aloud sometimes I would have had to leave already.
Oh my goodness thank you so much, Linda 💖 I sent this message to my parents as well. You are a sweetheart. Lots of hugs!!!🤗🤗💖💖💖
Every time you look out at your shed and/or open its door, you will have a great sense of accomplishment. When you flip on a switch, you & Obie can say “yeah, we did that!”❤
Yes!!!! 🥹🥹🥹 I can’t wait!!!
Love the idea of a little darker hue on the outside and the 'blonde' flooring!❤
Thank you! 😊
Awesome progress! A darker hue on the outside and blonde flooring would be my vote. Don’t work too hard in that heat.
That's the plan! Lots of breaks and lots of water! 👏🏻💖
Love a boss babe with freckles😁🌞😉. So proud of you girl, you're doing amazing things.
Thank you, Sandy 🥹💖💖💖
It's such a pretty color on the studio.. Also that tin roof, will be epic when raining. Love that sound!
Yes!!! Rainy days will be so fun 🥰
Blonde color is amazing. Just wait and see
Your puppy cracks me up! 😂 She just doesn’t get the whole working hard thing. Surely you would rather throw the ball for her!
😂😂😂 she keeps me sane! Outside = playtime!
@@StitchObsessed She's cute as a button!
Beautiful color!
Such hard work lady! But it will definitely be worth it! I love your playful dog, constantly bringing the ball to you to throw! Such a sweetie! ❤
She’s my best friend 🥰💖 haha thank you for watching!
Thank you for your update! You are one BUSY and INDUSTRIOUS young lady! ROCK ON!!!
Thank you so much! 💖💖
What a wonderful blessing, your dad is. The paint color will be beautiful so long as it makes you happy. The blonde flooring will reflect the light better back into your room. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much for watching!!!💖💖
The blonde floor is gorgeous! Look forward to following the project as it goes. Congrats on your own sewing space.
Thank you so much 💖💖
Dog is so cute while you’re busy putting dirt in his bringing his ball to you ….right on top of dirt 😂 you’re doing a great job! This will be so so nice for you. I’m really happy for you. ❤
Haha yes, Obi was all about playtime while was digging 😂 and thank you so much for watching 💖🤗 I really appreciate it!!!
Agree, darker shade. Great color choice!
Love seeing you playing with the dog while digging. Cute dog!
She’s the best 🥰💖
With the two colors, it reminds me of Cori Yoder's Buttercup and Slate fabric collection.
You are so incredibly talented!!! I don't know if there's anything you can't do.
Aww thank you, Cathy! Yes! I love Cori Yoders fabric collections 🥰
I have a shed for my quilting machine. I love it. We had to burry the electrical 20” deep. We eventually hired help.
You will love the space.
Hello from North Florida! It's looking Great! Looking forward to seeing your progress on the studio! Have a Great weekend! :)
Thank you! You too!💖
Times when I watch your videos I feel that I’m reading your diary. Hmmm. I don’t know exactly how I feel about that I do love your giggle.
Haha! Am I over sharing a bit? 🥴🫣
Girl, go rent a Ditch Witch to dig that trench! You will get done so much further much faster! And maybe a paint with primer in it would help cover those dark spots!
It’s a bit late for the Ditch Witch 😂😂 I DID get a good workout for a few days though!🥴
@@StitchObsessed you most definitely did! I was feeling all sorry for you! 😀
@@proud2bktsmama haha I appreciate it! 🤗💖
Lots of hard work for you. I was sweating when I was watching you dig your trench. Obie was having a ball playing catch. I agree see if you can find a little deeper color for your shed it won't be so starkly bright. It's getting there girl!! I'm excited for you
Thank you so much for watching, Linda!!!💖💖
A barn quilt would be an appointment addition ❤❤❤❤
Yes!!!! I definitely want to add a barn quilt 🥰
Wow it`s looking good & love that Obie is helping you play. Love the outside color. The blonde flooring will actually make it look roomier. Happy building & sewing
Thank you so much, Glenda!!!💖🤗 I agree about the flooring!
Love your fresh color for your studio
I like the two tone shed color!
Looking great! Glad you don’t have deadlines to complete your shed so you can enjoy the process. I would go a little darker on the out color and definitely the blonde flooring. As you mentioned, the lighter color won’t pick up all the fun threads and creativity that will be happening inside.🤗 Loved your dad peeking on the opposed of the shed! 😂 Slowly but Shirley it’s all coming together and you made it happen! 👍🏻
Thank you for watching, Jill! 💖👏🏻
I love how the doggie places the ball right in the trench lol
It’s fun to watch your progress
Haha! Ikr?! She was helping in her own little way 😂💖 thank you for watching!
I most definitely vote for blonde flooring - it won’t show all the lint and threads as drastically as the dark floors. Dark shows every single thing. You’re doing a great job. Will be worth all the time , effort, planning and hard work! Congrats!
Excellent point about the color of the floors! I'll definitely pick the lighter option, especially since my dog, Obi, has white hair that she is CONSTANTLY shedding! haha! Thank you so much for watching! 💖
Looks like you’re making good progress on your shed! It will take time, but you’ll really appreciate it once you can create in it 😊 Can’t wait to see the finished project!
Thank you so much for watching!💖🤗
Wonderful progess on your atudio. You and your dad have dome such a great job! I really like the blond flooring. It would look really pretty with the peach. It also adds a warmth and lightens up the space. I hope you’re having a wonderful weekend so far. Hugs from Minnesota.💗
Thank you so much, Tarah!💖🤗
I think you should call it The She-Sew Shack!
Love seeing your pup. He's so cute!
Get it girl! Getting closer. God love you, working in the heat too. Cannot wait to see how you set this up.
Thank you!!! 🙏🏻 💖 it’s a fun project so far!
Great progress- with everything else you have going on this is terrific! I’m so excited for you every time I see another video. I agree - blonde color flooring the dark might shrink down the appearance. And your dad is incredible- reminds me of my dad. Loved watching Odie wanting to play. 💕🤣
Thank you so much for watching, Debbie! 💖💖
So happy you are making progress. You have such a sweet personality.
Thank you so much!🤗💖
You're doing a GREAT JOB!!! Since you have asked...I would go a bit darker hue. The sense of satisfaction you feel is a lifetime source of confidence!! I'm with you on the "blonde" warmer colors!!
Thank you!!!🙏🏻 💖
I think a darker hue on the outside would give the best results. If you put a 2nd coat of the same light color, the dark shades of original paint may STILL show through some, requiring a 3rd coat!!! I've had that happen before!
Very true! I’m definitely rethinking the exterior color. 🤓
Thank you for sharing! You are doing an awesome job. I love watching your progress and I’m looking forward to seeing your custom quilt finished.
Thank you so much!💖
Your dog is hilarious, lol... It's going to be great once you get electricity then you can have a fan ...So excited for you!
Yes!!! A fan will be lovely! 😂
It’s looking great! You should be proud of yourself. Good luck as you work on this project! I wish I lived closer to you , I would come over and lend a hand. Just be careful and don’t over exert yourself. Thank you for sharing this journey with us! ❤️❤️
Thank you so much, Andrea!!!💖🥰
lots of hard work going on, well done to you and your Dad xxx
Thank you for watching!!💖💖
Go with the lighter floor. Dark floors are pretty until the smallest amount of dust gets on them. I believe us who sew are a certain type - and would go nuts seeing dust or dirt. The constant cleaning will take away from sewing time! Good job on your progress.
Excellent points! 👏🏻💖
I like the lighter colour for the floor
Last comment, lighter floor would be my choice! I have dark floors and hate them!
Another great video 🩶
Thank you for watching, Nachelle!💖🤗
You are making great progress! I really like the color. If you like the gray/peach color, you could do the trim in the gray. The white looks great too. I think you’ll be happier with the lighter flooring. I’m looking forward to your next video!
Thank you so much for watching!💖🤗
The paint color reminds me of the peach crayon
I like the lighter color
I like the two tone for the front and side but the apricot will look bright and cheery for the whole quilt cave 😊
Awesome! I like the lighter wood, classic.
I agree! 💖
It's going to be awesome!! And you will love it even more because of all the hard work you personally put into this. I like both floor plank colors but you will probably be happier with the lighter color just because of fabric dust. My son in law painted a cabin on a lake in MI a very similar shade as your studio. It probably had a little more red and brown undertones but still a bright color. It was a very happy color. It had been previously painted that typical cabin red so I'm sure that affected the outcome but overall - very similar. I really liked it. It looked great in every season. Looking forward to seeing your free motion quilting on the custom quilt you are making. You are quite the multi-tasker!! I just finished my Lady Lancaster quilt jacket hack. I'm pretty proud of it. I tasked my brain above and beyond what it wanted to do since I didn't have a pattern. But I didn't make any fatal mistakes and I like it. It will be my house uniform all winter. Always enjoy your videos!
Oooo that’s amazing! I bet the jacket looks GORGEOUS!!!😍 thank you for your input! I’m very excited and enjoying the process 🥰
good idea using a darker color of peach as the second coat.
Thank you!
Hey Miriam!!! Great progress and smart dad with the plastic! Getting the dirt out of the grass to backfill is a big mess and that plastic took care of that! 🎉 The color looks good on camera, but if you want to adjust, now is the time! 🤗 I like dark floor BUT I do believe the lighter will be a great choice and it looks beautiful! You’re doing a great job and I bet learning so much, keep it up and thank you for sharing this with us!! ♥️
Thank you so much for watching!💖🤗
It’s looking fantastic!
Thank you!!!💖
yes the blond color for the floor
So excited about your project that I’d even come dig with you if I could! Keep on keeping on Marian and Dad!! You’re killing it - and you are killing this family thing, too!
Bravo 👏🏻 🙌🏻 🎉
Love watching you guys work together!
Thank you so much!!!💖💖💖it’s been such a fun project so far!
I'm so impressed with your strength and stamina 😮. You have so much to be proud of❤... You remind me of my daughter.... You go girl!
Awww thank you, Sherry!💖🤗
I am so happy for you about this shed. All the previous work with your dad made this project less stressful. And I thank you for sharing your good news. As we get older, my sister and I hear of so many problems with friends and family as well as our own "getting older" issues. I joke that we might need to go in search of good news. I clicked quickly to hear yours. Lastly, your dog is so cute. I love her coloring. Consider making a pixel quilt of your dog with a purple collar?
Thank you so much, Carol! And oh my goodness, that’s such a cute idea to make a pixel quilt of my pup! I need to add that to my “quilt ideas” list 🥰
Eeee! Finally catching up on these! So exciting to make more progress on your space! Also, Obi and my dog Arya would be the best ignore each other food obsessed friends hahahaha.
Lol!!! Yes! They would definitely be buddies! Thanks for watching, Chereen! 💖💖💖
Y'all are doing a great job! So happy for you!!
Thank you so much, Debbie💖
Hi, just found your channel & love it. I have the lighter wood type in my tiny house, I really like it. I live with 3 cats, 5 dogs & 1 lovely dove so you can imagine what comes in on their paws. The floor doesn't show the dirt & is very easy to keep clean. Cheers!
Oh awesome! Thank you so much for sharing! 💖
So nice to see how things are moving forward and looking wonderful. I’ve renovated many houses, doing siding, plumbing, electrical etc, and know how much energy it takes. I would suggest the lighter flooring. I like the color of the studio but if you decide to go a shade darker, if you get paint that has a primer in it, you may be able to get by with only one coat. Nice job. I love how things are going. You will love having room to quilt.
Thank you so much for the advice!!!💖
Beautiful job . I had a mini split for my quilt studio and it worked great. And we lived in southeast GA at the time.
You are doing an amazing job! (I'm having a bit of studio space envy, haha) The building looks so bright and cheerful. I can picture cute curtains in the windows and maybe flower boxes underneath them... Great job, all around!
Thank you so much!💖💖
Looking good! It’s going to be delightful to have for your sewing shed.
Yeah!!! I’m super excited 🥰💖
Definitely the blonde flooring. It will look awesome!!
I think so too!💖💖
You are so hardworking. You will be so toned and in shape after all the digging, bending and reaching.
I’m trying! Haha thank you for watching! 💖
Love how Obie keeps dropping her ball into the ditch. 😂
Ikr?! 😂 it’s her way of helping, I guess? 🥴😂
I like that Blonde flooring and you doing a great job! Glad the digging is done!
You and me both! 🥴😂💖
Nice work.. I like the Blonde flooring.
Thank you!!! 🙏🏻 💖 yeah I like it too!
He shed is huge!! This will be a great stidio. Lots of hard work but it will be a blessingfor you. Love the dog.
Thank you so much! 💖🥰
Oooh I love the bright cheery color you chose! In winter it’s gonna be like your own little pocket of sunshine :) I’m excited to see how you “landscape” around the front and side with the picnic table and plants/flowers etc.
Yes!!! It’s going to be SO much fun!🥰💖
Good progress! Thanks for sharing. Love your backyard. Your Dad is awesome!
Color of studio: yes on darker. Floor: blonde.
Thanks so much for your input, Connie💖🥰
So funny. 😂You have to keep bending down to get the ball and throw it.
Ikr?! 😂 she was being such a little booger!
You're doing great!
Thank you, Donna!💖
Great job. It will all be worth it.
Thank you!💖
Good luck I can’t wait to see it finished
Thank you so much, Tracy!💖
I have three blue ridge mini splits in my quilt retreat areas they work really well. I have two wall units and one ceiling mounted unit. 😊
I’ll look them up! Thank you! 💖
You're really making progress Miriam.
I agree about going a bit darker on the exterior paint. It looks like a shade of melon, and I visualize more of a light pumpkin. As fir flooring...not dark. I have 3 dogs and quilt daily. Dark shows everything.
You're definitely juggling lots. Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much, Donna!!! Yes! The paint color definitely was supposed to be more of a soft peach but my word…it’s way too bright. I was actually talking to my dad earlier and I might completely switch colors to a sage green 🫣 we shall see. I need to think about it 🥴😂
@@StitchObsessed ohhh, the sage green would blend in with the surrounding foliage.
Interested to see what you choose!
So excited for you! Running a little behind, so I just had to binge watch the last 3 videos to get caught up, but your new studio will be amazing! I can't wait to see it done! 🙂
Thank you so much for watching!!💖
You did a great job with your ditch. It was so cute to see your fur baby wanting you to throw his ball. I thought at some point you might bury it.😂 I love the color you've chosen for the outside. It looks so happy! Blonde has my vote.❤
Thank you! 😊💖
Love the color although a tad darker may be easier to put another coat over the darker grey. I would definitely go with the Blonde flooring color. The Lighter the items inside your shed the larger the shed will look. If you put darker interior it will make the space seem smaller. At least this is what we were told when choosing colors for painting the interior rooms in our house. Looks great and I am super excited to follow your progress. Take your time and enjoy the process. The heat is horrible to work in and you do not want to over do it and end up hurting yourself. It will all get finished in due time. Be well, take care and stay hydrated!!
Thank you, Lena! I totally agree about the lighter floors will help the room look bigger and brighter 🥰
Love your shed!!!
Thank you! It’s going to be SO nice when it’s done! 🥰
Great to see the progress on your studio, Miriam👍💪 Yes, you might want a darker or more muted shade on the outside if you are finding it's very luminous in the sunlight. Paint colours can very hard to get right, for they always look different in situ than on the card😕
I loved both floors - choose whichever fits best with the scheme you have in mind. It'll be great.
All the best with getting the quilt finished up. I hope we'll get to see it❤
Thank you so much! I’ll definitely show the finished quilt! 👏🏻💖 it’s turning out so cool!
So wonderful that you are getting this wonderful shed. And such a blessing that you are working with your dad!! I’m loving watching this process!!
Thank you so much!😊💖
Your cattle dog is like mine, “ball obsessed”. Good job on the project.
Hahaha yes, she was all about play time while I was digging! 😂
Yes you can buy her a toy that will throw the ball for her
Love this for you. Your work ethic is an admiration.
Thank you so much, Heather 💖💖💖
i would build like a pavillion to sit in, instead of a picnic table. I've seen where people has built like a solid floor on paver blocks and then use old doors for the walls and ceiling. Have your dad put a plug in on the outside of the building and you can plug in lights for your setting area.
Oh this is such a good idea! 😍 I’ll have to think about this and figure out what we could do 🥰
Lighter floor! It will reflect light back and make space seem larger. Dark floor will absorb light, making space seem darker.
Great point! Thank you, Susan!!💖💖
I think the lighter flooring will brighten up your studio!
Excellent point!
o - and you won't have to drive over that trench with anything, the dirt will settle all by itself just fine in a few weeks to a couple months. You can't believe how jelly I am of that beautiful black dirt!!! So much better than the old red clay I have here in Virginia
Great progress. I think a shade a little more muted would work, but I love the peachy color.
SO very excited for you Miriam! TYFS your progress along the way with your followers. Hard work will pay off in the long run, and doing it right the first time is sometimes extra effort but it certainly protects eliminating future problems that can occur👍🏼💕💕💕
One suggestion, the buried electric cable needs to be photographed and marked so it can be watched periodically for wash away of the top soil😩 Ask me how I know😱 We did the same thing in our pool area, several yrs later, we needed to gently till around the inside of privacy fence to place planters. My sweet hubby found the buried cable WITH the tiller!😱😱😱 Thankfully he was not injured but the cable was sliced and had to be removed, replaced and covered with a protectant pipe for future protection.
You and your dad are doing a GREAT job and we are all waiting with excitement to see the end results💕💕🙏🏻🙏🏻
Oh wow! I’m so glad your hubby didn’t get hurt! Thank you so much for the advice! 💖💖
@@StitchObsessed - Thank you Miriam♥️ Me too! I’ve had him 53 years and counting💕💕💕🙏🏻
@@helenpeddycord2241 wow that’s amazing 💖💖💖
@@StitchObsessed 🤣🤣🤣It IS💕🙏🏻
I am enjoying this project. You will have a great studio that you will be very proud of. I think a little darker paint would blend in the background a little better. Also the lighter floors would make you happier. I have had the darker floors and they had to be swept every day. Sometimes more.
That seems to be common issue with dark floors! I'll probably end up going with lighter ones. Thank you so much for watching!
I was going to do the same thing but I moved my husband office to my long big long bedroom that I had so much space in the spare room I put my long arm in it and out of the garage plenty of room in my studio so happy but I did do homework about the sheds thank you
Oh awesome! Thank you so much for watching! 💖
I don't know how this would work for you but I think I would try to put in big ceramic tiles. Like 12 by 12 or 24 by 24. Tyler is so much easier to and it will help brighten it up. We have a habitat for humanity store here where I live. Many times you can pick up small quantities like you would need for that at a very small price
Wow love it so far, you are truly blessed. Can't wait to see more progress ❤
Thank you so much!💖💖
I used a light color flooring, I got a close out price. I love the light flooring!
Oooo nice! I love hunting for those good deals! 🥴
