Ah! It's finished! My new sewing oasis!
Care to join me on a tour? S'go!
[See some of the construction photos here.]
Let's start here at the ironing board (that needs recovering):
 |
| Ironing area! Note the dryer vent trying to encroach. Don't think so buddy. WIP shelf bottom left - not too full! Yay! Also serger mat in progress on the ironing board! |
Moving along to the left:
 |
| Ahh.. Gettin' to the good stuff! Under the desk - trash can, small scrap basket, large scrap/wadder basket. Up top - old CD rack turned ribbon holder, wall mounted spool racks, and of course, machines! |
 |
| Here's a close up of the CD/ribbon rack! The real small spools of ribbon don't fit on this - they fall through - but I've only got a few of those anyway, and they've been demoted to a drawer. |
My desk is technically an artists' desk - it can be angled up for drawing and painting and whatnot. But, obvi, I keep it flat. What I LOVE about it though, are these little compartments on the right:
 |
| My scissors, rotary cutters, rulers, bias tape makers, bobby pins, pattern weights, old paint stains, dust kittens. |
 |
| Glorious! Notion drawer to the left of the desk... Wood shelf with patterns, large cuts of fleece, flannel, etc. Look how I stealthily covered all the wires and cords under the desk with my sewing machine case! |
Moving along to the Shelves of Sewing Paradise...
 |
| SwooOOoon... |
 |
| Patterns! The ones in the large box are PDF types, like Burda and other printables. The regular envelope patterns are in the cardboard box I have yet to cover & make pretty. Yummy fabrics rolled in a basket just cuz, FQs, sewing basket (with manuals, needles, feet, etc.), a basket with various trims, and some wools I couldn't fit elsewhere. |
So whaddaya think?!?! Amazing, right? I love it so much! How super inspiring to have everything all in one place, and SO organized!
Ok, I can't chat anymore. Must go sew.
Love to all!
