Today I thought I'd give you a little peek into my sewing room. I have a 10' X 12' room which I supposedly share with my husband, but I have pretty much taken over the whole thing (with his blessing... oh how I love that man).
As you can see, it's nothing fancy, and most of the furniture and storage came from fancy places like Target or Big Lots. But it's my space, and I love it. Here, let me give you a little tour.
The two machines you see on the white table are my sewing machine and my serger. I also have a coverstitcher, but I am afraid to put all three on the same table, as I am not sure it's sturdy enough to handle that. The coverstitcher is on top of a printer stand in the far corner of the room (not visible in this picture).
The white rolling cart contains scrapbooking supplies... uh yeah, one of these days I will get back to that hobby too. I do still use the stuff in there, because I sometimes like to make handmade cards to include with gifts.
The white modular storage unit came from Target, and I love it! The top drawers hold all my envelope patterns (I have hanging files - not visible - for the larger patterns). The middle unit is for sewing books. And the drawers at the bottom contain dividers and neatly store size tags and elastics.
On the large wooden bookshelf built by my very talented father-in-law, I have my thread collection, ironing supplies, and various notions in the clear plastic totes. Everything is labeled so I can find it quickly... and hopefully, put it away when I'm done with it! The wicker basket on the top shelf holds any project(s) I am currently working on. And at the very top, you can see an extremely important component of any sewing room... great tunes!
So, that's my workspace. I'm very thankful to have it. Care to show me yours? Just post it on your blog and leave me a comment so I can come over for a virtual visit!
