My Sewing Area
 

I had a sewing room in the basement, but Jim was always complaining he never saw me anymore. So, I moved my sewing machine upstairs to the spare bedroom. I bought some counter top remnants from Menards (like Home Depot) for about $20.00 each and created a 6 foot long cutting table and another 6 foot piece sets on top of an oak trestle dining table we no long use. This gives me a larger sewing table. I also keep a laptop here. I keep my fabric stash downstairs. I still have the old sewing area and a large cutting table with storage downstairs. My son built the cutting table for me out of something he used to have for his large speakers and guitar stuff. I just had him put shelves in it and top it with counter top. I purchased clear small totes at Walmart and keep only one color in each tote. These are stored on a shelf unit Jim built for the kids toys when they were little. This way it is easier to keep it organized. I bought several garden tool bags to store sewing tools in.

Looks like you have a great "upstairs" sewing room! Thanks for sharing.

Your new room is very nice, and looks like it's ready for sewing.
I too have a quilting room in the basement (for fabric/ironing/cutting, etc) and on the main floor (for regular sewing/piecing) of our house.

It looks like a nice work space!

Looks great. Love all the light shining in. I would get tired of going up and down the stairs though. Of course, I most certainly could use the exercise.

Nice sewing area! My house is one level so I've taken over the larger of the two "extra" bedrooms. I do my cutting on the kitchen island. Even though it isn't in one room it is nice to get up and move around sometimes.

Looks good! Do you think the hubs will see you anymore? Have fun......Micki

nice setup! looks organized and workable .... like your ingenuity in adapting and reusing. have fun stitching!

I enjoyed seeing your space. Love the gardening bag with the tools.
