I think this worked--One is a picture of what the front will look like and the other is the plan showing the larger garage and the sewing room set back. Also, the roof line for the garage is not right--it won't be that high. I have a new upgraded program and I need to decide the exact size of the addition before I rebuild the roof. I just realized the picture show a small window where the half bath is--I have taken the window out and move it next to the french doors. Sue in Wyoming

I found a helpful hint on page 4 of the fit brochure on the Simplicity link, about enlarging a dart... http://www.simplicity.com/index.cfm?page=section/fittips/fitbrochure/reallyknow.htm also, more info here: http://www.sewnews.com/library/sewnews/library/aatips21.htm http://www.sewnews.com/library/sewnews/library/aatips16.htm good luck!

Wow. Thank you all. So much to think about! I am always impressed with the knowledge on this site. Lisa_a: I also had a concern with the 77" aisle - we do cook pasta (Italian heritage!). A prep sink could be a great addition to the space. I have not seen an oven under a cooktop in person and those pictures you sent are so helpful. Good point about the lack of landing space near the pantry! Originally, I was hoping for the cooktop/range to be on the exterior wall so your idea to relocate the sink in interesting. That triangle does seem to work well. The hutch is free standing and it also belongs to my MIL so I am not sure we will keep it or not. We would rather not move the pocket door for several reasons which are too long to explain here. We really did consider that but decided we were happier with it staying put. Brilliant question about the light switches! One is behind where the fridge is in plan B. I have never seen them placed inside of a cabinet before. Is the baking station just a longer counter? I do like the idea of a bookcase and one barstool relocated. We never eat at the counter - it is mainly used when friends/family are visiting and hanging out in the kitchen and by the kids to work on their homework. LOVE what you did with the blue tape! I will be checking to make sure everything will fit since one of the reasons we are doing this is to give us more storage. Sena01- I never mentioned that my fridge is a 36" counter depth one so it does stick out into the room a little. Do you think that would look ok in your plan? I was wondering if the wall would look a little off balance. I do like the MW over there. Buehl- I am the shortest at 5'4" and DH is 6'3". Hoping kids get their dad's height. :) Great advice of the venting of the oven - I had not thought about the steam, etc coming out of the front. Last time I looked, I could get a Bosch 5 burner cooktop for $1200 (maybe even less) and an oven for $2200. Maybe my prices are off. Is there a great 36" range for about the same amount? Please steer me in the right direction. Thank you again!

I do not. https://www.gardenweb.com/discussions/kitchentable takes me to the kitchen table forum on the gardenweb domain. But https://www.houzz.com/discussions/kitchentable does not. It just does a search for "kitchentable" on the houzz domain. So editing the URL does not seem to work on the "index" page of a forum. However, it seems to work once you enter a discussion. (At least the few I've tried) For example, this discussion on the gardenweb domain: https://www.gardenweb.com/discussions/5860282/pictures-do-not-enlarge-anymore-in-gardenweb Editing the URL (changing gardenweb to houzz) does bring me to same discussion: https://www.houzz.com/discussions/5860282/pictures-do-not-enlarge-anymore-in-gardenweb
