SEWING SPACES/SEWING ESSENTIALS/WHAT DO YOU LOVE...
...my baby shears and thread snips. All sizes shapes, all sizes. I keep them posted in different areas on the sewing table and in different areas of the room. I want them handy, within arms reach at all times. I love them, wouldn't want to be without them.
I want several more types and colors. Kai has a short pair that I've placed on my wish list. What do you love about or in your sewing space...

I love the Kai embroidery scissors with the bent handle for clipping threads off my garments. They are my faves.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE my little baby shears Kyle. All shapes and sizes. Can't get enough of them!
DeleteI absolutely love my sewing space, from my sewing table that I made from an old door to my pegboard that keeps everything organized including my scissors. I plan on spending some quality time there real soon.
ReplyDeleteHope you get to spend that quality time real soon Tanya. I certainly have been missing you!!!
DeleteI keep some things handy - those tools I use every garment, and other scissors tucked away in a special drawer. My space is a little cluttered, but I know where everything is - I do have to put things away or it would be unusable.
ReplyDeleteSarah talk about CLUTTERED, you should see how it looks like here! But I agree, as long as I know how to find things that's all that matters.
DeleteI have many loves in my sewing space. I like my cutting table (an old library table from school), thread snips (use them ALWAYS), cutting mat, magnetic pin cushion, and lots of light.
ReplyDeleteIKR L! I love so many things in my sewing room too. That's why I decided to do a little feature about all of them. Really, I am so grateful to have all of my sewing things.
DeleteI've just moved back into my sewing room that was temporarily (almost a year) taken over by our embroidery business which we just moved out to our studio. I love it all! Right now I cut on our dining room table (we have another one for eating) b/c it's huge but it's low & a back-killer. I might like one of those higher, folding/storage-underneath ones someday but would want something sturdy. Any ideas?
ReplyDeleteSo glad you've gotten to move back in and hope you enjoy EVERY SINGLE MINUTE in there. I know that cutting table thing is a back killer. Hope you get a suitable solution worked out real soon about that. I saw a great "make it yourself" table on Closet Case Files blog you might take a look at. Another option is one that I've got pinned on my "Sewing Spaces" board on Pinterest. It's made by using pre-made book shelves (three or four shelves high) on each end and simply laying a flat board on top. I like the pinterest table because using the pre-made book shelves also gives you extra storage options underneath. Happy sewing!
