Think about them being not only at the regular floor level but having some additional outlets raised to make it easier to access them depending on how you intend to situation everything in your room. You may also want to think about having all the additional wiring for other electronic items such as computers and tv's while the room is being renovated.
You may want to think about getting some free-standing book cases/storage closets to keep all your sewing fabric and supplies. With a storage unit, you can open the doors while you're working and sewing but then close them to allow the room to appear neat and tidy if company happens to come.
Also think about adding locking wheels to the bottoms of larger items which makes it easier to move for cleaning.
Good luck with your getting your "new" room.

Believe me, I am looking into table height outlets. I am so tired of getting down on my hands and knees to plug something in, and my knees aren't what they used to be. Every outlet will be at table height or a little higher. But this all takes time. I will take pictures as the work gets going and post them when done. I am hoping for Christmas.
