Funny how my favorite room in our house has 3 windows all with the same view of a rock wall. Not much sun light hits the room, yet it holds most everything I need to be perfectly happy. It is large, has a TV, a bathroom, room for my kids coloring table or love sac if they want to join me. Open space for Mike to play around with the kids. Most importantly it holds a sewing machine, quilting machine, and a couple hundred yards of fabric.
You guessed it - my sewing room. A room with no view - but I'll take whatever time I can get with my rock wall view.
Tonight I spent some time in there cleaning things up - it needed it big time!
I started with this side of the room, because I had to take down this machine - because my Gammill is being delivered tomorrow! So.Excited.I.Don't.Have.The.Words.
While it was semi clean (as that doesn't happen often, and doesn't stay clean very long) I thought it was time to give you all a little tour.

As you walk in the door and look right - this is what you see. The open floor space is usually covered in a mess, a quilt, a coloring table, or a love sac. Very rarely are you able to see the carpet in this room. And seeing this picture makes me want to add color into this room - so BLAH. |
|
Walk in and look left and this is where the quilting table in the picture above once was. My Gammill will hopefully fill this spot tomorrow! |
|
This is my sewing table |
|
Sitting area - I try to use my fabric as decorations as much as possible. I think I'm fooling Mike, but I'm sure he's on to me at this point. |
|
Cutting Table (2 Ikea bookshelves on their sides with 2 desk tops over the top - makes a big cutting table for under $100) |
|
Closet across the cutting table is full of fabric - this is my Moda 3 Sisters row - yes the WHOLE row is 3 Sisters fabric. I think I may be there #1 fan |
|
I'm in the process of pulling out any fabric over 1 yard and rolling it onto a bolt. This project is taking me much longer then expected to complete and not sure it is saving me space (which I thought it would) but I do love being able to see all the bolts of fabric. |
|
A view into my bathroom - wish I had made this a huge walk in closet. |
|
Usually my cutting table is COVERED in fabric - so had to take a shot of an almost clean table. |
|
Sadly - this is the other closet and my next project. Patterns, my personal quilts to be quilted, batting, thread, crap. Needs to be organized! |
|
Both of my grandma's sewed - but I have nothing to show for it. These pictures are embroidered by Mike's Grandma and the sewing table is his other Grandmas. I love that I have something of them in this room.
And there you have it - my sewing room in pictures. Not great pictures, but like I said - there is no sun and these were taken at 10pm. I love seeing pictures of peoples spaces so I wanted to share some of my own.
Thanks for stopping by today! I'll be back next Wednesday with some projects. I've been working on a fun one!

How exciting to be waiting on your long arm! I remember waiting for mine and it's arrival like it was yesterday..though it was 8 yrs ago. I still love it and although my studio has no windows, it is my favorite room in the house.
