I thought this morning I would share with you ladies my sewing room/laundry room. It's not a very big space but it does work well for sewing and it's my own space! (after four kids having a space of my own is very nice ;) ) This is the view from the hall way looking in.
My sewing table with a few cut out Puppet Show Tunic patterns waiting for me. I have now just about finished the two tops and the dress though. Can't wait to finish them!! I used a old double curtian rod to place the fabric I am going to use in the near future on. The shelf was made out of an old box frame matteress that broke. Before we through it out hubby snagged some good wood on it. (thank you wonderful hubby of mine! He is very thriffty) It had my favorite patterns of all time on them. :) I have almost made every pattern that I own now.
My fabric shelf with about the other half of fabric I own, the rest of the fabric is in a big box in my room. My quilting cutter and supplies hangs on the wall out of little fingures reach and hubby found the great organzier for all my notions too. (ignore the holes in the wall! I tried to hang something on the wall with no luck)
I am a bit of a messy person when I am sewing!
To make more room in my tiny space my hubby rigged my ironing board ontop of the washer and dryer for me. All he did was cut short "legs" out of a 2x4 and screwd them into board with washers. I love my ironing board, It was my great grandmother's. I think of her every time I use it. :) ALl I have to do is make a new cover for it but I cna't find any fabric I like well enough. RIght now I use a quilt on it.
I do have a window too! It is a nice sunny space during the day. I need the sun, it makes me happy.
I hope you enjoyed this little tour of my sewing space.
