As it's the new year and I always have a huge clean out. I felt inspired by Michelle's room with the "Happy" embroidery machine and all of her threads on the wall. Wish I had one of those! I've got all my threads in plastic boxes inside the wardrobe and the 4 drawers under the fabric cupboard.
So I've moved my machine to the side wall it gives me much more space as before. The sewing/cutting table is now under the window. Originally my machines were in full view from the street and I was always worried about that!
So here is my 'new' sewing room set up. It's given me so much more space to move about and set up ironing boards, floor space etc. Love Chris
P.S. The movie on my computer I was watching is called Cancel my Reservation with Bob Hope, Eva Marie Saint, Ralph Bellamy, Forrest Tucker and Anne Archer made in 1972!!!
Can you spot the antique Rooster that Meganne gave me? She also gave me the Rooster hangers on the side of the fabric cupboard that hold up my Hoops.
It is 4metres x 3.3metres or for the American ladies approximately 13.1 feet x 10.1 feet. It's a decent size and enough for me. Love Chris
It is a lovely big room I have just been drooling over a new machine, may be this year, Hope you get loads of happiness from your sewing room,
and if we had everything we wanted, what would we have for Birthdays and Christmases.
Hugs pam.
With regard to birthdays and Christmas I'm now asking for gift vouchers from my favourite sewing machine shops. Love Chris
So happy that my post is inspiring others, I think it is so important to feel good in our sewing/craft rooms. I hate clutter so it is important to stay neat.
hugs
Michelle
Have fun sewing
I think Deanna (camylow) had her husband build a whole room for her and it's gorgeous. Love Chris
My sewing room is a mess again. I think it would help me if my family did not use my sewing room/office for everything...broken toys, paperwork they need in a safe place...It seems if they do not know what to do with it -- it goes in my office.
A major "clean and organize" is on my list of things to do. However, I must need to post a "No dumping" sign too. LOL

I went to Meg's today - it's been in the mid 30's here but it was nice and cool in her place. We had a lazy day and ended up watching Twilight - Breaking Dawn. So nice to sit and just chat. Love Chris
I am in the process of moving my sewing room from the smallest bedroom to the middle one. Even now with boxes and tubs everywhere and a dining table (which was in here as Hubby has the dining room as an office & it was supposed to be a cutting table for me but was always snowed under stuff) and an extra chest of drawers and a computer table - I have more free space than I had before. I have my Brother 780D on a rolling table similar in size to the one under your printer. It is the only machine able to be used at present, if I can find the stabiliser that is. I used a tip I saw on BHG the other week for hiding my power cords. Fold them up, loosely, and push them into a towel roll centre. Those are low power cords that are not used often, of course. Not too sure about the fire risk of ones in constant use.
My first purpose use sewing room was the same size as yours. Your layout is great. Hope it gets messy soon. And the weather gets cooler for us all.
Please do another picture in - let's say - one week or so :-)
Love and Hugs Maria
Estou montando o meu ateliêr na minha casa nova. Assim que ficar pronto, eu vou postar as fotos. Parabéns, e bom trabalho! Beijops com carinho.
O meu espaço é uma varanda de 1,80x 2,50.
Um dia destes posto...
