🚚 MOVING MY SEWING SPACE INTO MY STUDIO
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 окт 2024
- You know my sewing space. I have everything organized just where I need it. And occasionally, this room turns into a third bedroom. Well now I have two children that live out of province and in the past couple of months it’s switched to become a guest room that's occasionally a sewing room. It has seriously messed with my schedule. So in this video, it's my new studio tour. There's an Ikea Hack, a new sewing setup and hopefully I'll find my groove again.

My cutting table is my late mother's rectangular dining room table with all three leaves installed. I use 8 bed risers if the table is fully expanded, and 4 bed risers if all the leaves are removed. I count myself lucky that I can use my mother's table with all its memories as I work on my projects.
I have to work on my dining table in the open plan dining room---it drives my husband and kids bonkers when they're trying to watch the tv! If I keep at it long (and loud) enough) he may just buy me the garden room I keep on about!!
All you did, the way you organize your place is fantastic !
The way you speak about your kids - very respectful !
Amazing !
Way cool my hubby just took out our bottom bunk in our 5th wheel to expand my craft area been at 4 days to get things in better order ❤it’s coming along super great 👍🏻
You are happy women. You now what you want. And You are very good teacher of quilting.😀
I like that you worked out the height, width, depth issues. I've found that most "1 size fits most" solutions don't. Your creativity in working out your challenges made me happy for you. Great Job!
It’s a long story. I retired three years ago, moved south to warmer climate, purchased a small home…and last summer I purchased a new Pfaff Creative Icon sewing machine. I fell in obsessive love with this new hobby! But I have very limited space, of which I’ve gone totally overboard with this new love. But thanks to you and to this years’ challenge, I have totally revamped my sewing room! It’s a very small space that also shares my office desk and file cabinets. But I have reorganized it so my sewing cabinet, my cutting table, my thread cabinet and my fabric cabinets all fit in my little room. My living room no longer has to share space with my sewing room! I purchased a cutting table that has drop sides so it folds down to 12” and tucks up against the wall when I’m not cutting fabric. But I can also lift one side and put my wool pressing mat on it when I’m pressing. I installed pegboard on my wall above the cutting table and hung my rulers on it and got them off of the floor leaning against the wall. I cannot thank you enough for all of the inspiration you have given me to declutter and arrange my space so it is MUCH easier to thoroughly enjoy my favorite hobby! What a difference…I love my new home, my new hobby and my new sewing room! ❤❤❤
You have been very thoughtful and creative with your space! Well done!
Sounds wonderful,double inspired now. Just need the energy.🤞
@@lynette. lol. I understand…little bit at a time, lots of short breaks. It is when you see progress, it’s hard to stop. Good luck and have fun!
P
I wish I could see pictures of your explanation. I’m in the dinning room and I have a craft room that I share with another that is really more of a storage spot at this point.
Your guest room/sewing room story is SO similar to mine. My guest room gradually became a sewing room bit by bit. I proposed propping the bed mattress against the wall, and had a collapsible bed frame in a box in the corner of the room. My Bernina 770 was on an IKEA trestle table that had a removable top. So when guests came, "all I had to do" was take down the trestle, stow the legs and top behind the living room sofa, and put the bed together. Also, my sewing machine had to be stowed, along with my works in progress. It worked. Sort of. And while the mattress was up against the wall, I used it as a design wall. But then I added a Martelli table that's too big to wheel out of the room. And soon I just could not have guests unless I wanted to also disassemble the Martelli and put lots of stuff away. (Don't even talk about the 12 vintage machines I collected during the pandemic.) But I have no alternate space. Getting rid of the Martelli and putting in a Murphy bed is the next possibility. Or putting up a separate studio building in the back yard is another idea. Hmmmm....
I've wanted to make one of these. Based on the price of all the pieces I decided to buy a thrift store 5 ft long dresser (75.00), its large enough for a ironing board and cutting station. It ticked off a few boxs, cutting , ironing and storage. Yes, like yours, I put casters with breaks. As far as ironing, I made 2 boards one for the full length and the other a 3rd of it. These were made out of scrap plywood my nephew had.
I like the idea of using an old dresser 👍
Hi Karen, thanks again for all you do!
I did go and purchase a Husky table for my new renovated sewing room (small former bedroom after I decluttered it). And I did get it without the drawers so I could lower it enough to sit at it with my non-hydraulic sewing chair. Great to sit at and hand bind my first quilt. And then raise it up high enough to cut material for my next quilt!. I paired this with a gate leg folding table (Kensington Table Rolling Cart by Simply Tidy). This allows me to expand my cutting space when needed, or fold it up and tuck it away. I had an old IKEA corner work desk from before I retired. My husband lowered it to the lowest level, and now perfect height to sew and quilt on using your tips for ergonomic sitting to do FMQ. Organized the whole room and Wow does it work well for me! Asked my husband what he thought when I was all done - " I don't think I am going to see very much of you now!"
And the decluttering is now going on for the rest of the house! Thanks again for all you inspiration.
Karen, you are a ‘just get it done’ kind of gal…love it!
I can't believe I have expanded my sewing space to two locations. But if I want my kids to visit, they need a place to sleep. So it's time for sewing space v2.0
I was always amazed that you quilt and sew in different places.
You did and now it will help you to be more organized. An awesome sewing space makes a happy place to create.
Oh of course a true mother's ❤️. I really enjoyed this " move "
Makes me want to reconfigure my space
I haven’t been at my machine since surgery in Oct. I picked up EPP to do in my bdrm upstairs. It’s okay for me until I can comfortably be downstairs for longer periods.
After alot of trail and error I invested in a 52" Husky adjustable work bench a year ago for my Juki TL2000 machine. My back and neck has been so grateful for it. I purchased a 3 tiered rolling cart from Amazon. Each tier is about 6" wide and 15" long. It store perfectly under the right ledge of the work bench when not in use. When sewing it rolls next to my right side for quick access to my snips, clips, pins, etc. - Rhonda
It’s a great table
I love my Husky Tables. Best purchase I made for my sewing room. The versatility is wonderful. I love how you put them together by yourself! Bravo! I would recommend you use a portable ironing pad between you butcher block and your wool mat for added protection for your wood tabletop. I purchased a mat that you would use on top of a dryer. It is nonslip on the bottom and Teflon fabric on the top.
Thought - since I cannot dedicate a whole room to sewing. I used a folding table and bed raisers for my cutting space, it really helps my back while working on big projects. Love your ideas!
The table being able to raise to the cutting table a nice touch.
I like that idea.
Amazon sells a table with a motor that raised the table. I love mine.
I also love putting Ikea furniture together. Great idea for a work surface.
This has been interesting to watch. Since I have such a small space for sewing, I am always cleaning up after every project, so I rarely have large UFO’s, but find my largest problem is keeping scraps. Working on letting go to keep them under control!
I don’t care how many videos I have seen of other sewing spaces, I always watch them and enjoy doing so. Thanks for sharing yours.
Karen, you sparkle in today's video. Glad you're feeling better and congrats on progress in your Noom journey. I drooled over your new Ikea storage island and the new desk/table from Home Depot. Love your new sewing space--you'll be more productive because you'll be happier and relaxed. My sewing area is on the right side of our basement. I just keep expanding. 🤣 The left side contains stuff from 2 of our kids when they've moved, and stuff from our move 7 years ago. It needs a major decluttering, but not today because I have some sewing to do...
Thank you for sharing!
Gee, so sorry about your pain!! 🥺Hope you feel better tomorrow and get it under control. It's rough when you can't speak, or eat without pain.
I love the adjustable Husky table. That's actually what I finally went with for a cutting and ironing space. I have a board and wool mat that I swap out with a cutting mat as needed. I got the one with drawers and keep rulers etc in the drawers.
I "stumbled" on your video - wasn't looking for something like this, but it was refreshingly and surprisingly helpful. Loads of ideas. Hands-on demos. Step by step. Super pace for processing. And I could so relate! Thank you for sharing this process of recreating a sewing/crafting/work space when bedrooms need to be reconfigured for guests. So helpful! Blessings! :)
I have my fabric and supplies in the guest room/art studio for daughter and I sew in the diningroom. We don’t have an eat in kitchen so it’s the bare basics when I sew-machine and fabric,
LOL - the shoe boxes. I use dozen of shoe boxes for my projects - glad it's hip (anything you do is hip!)
You certainly are a lady with many talents . Well done and happy sewing😀
What a great idea! It'd be a major ordeal for me because we don't have any Ikea's close. I have to drive over 2 hours to get to them. The screamer is that there's an Ikea about 5 minutes down the street from my Aunt's house in Burlington, ON! It's all good, tho. I'll work something out! I'm grateful for the info! Thanks so much!
Okay first of all, I hope you feel better soon! I have to tell you I love the pic of you under all the boxes LOL I can relate to that one! I can't believe you made one of those cutting storage tables!!! I absolutely love it and I am so glad you showed how to do it. My daughter and I are going to start shopping for a new home this year and we have decided to turn the living room into the sewing space and the loft into a living room. She has her Baby Lock and also an embroidery machine. I have my Juki and my Baby Lock Lyric. I also bought the Cutie quilting frame with the stitch regulator at Quilt Con last year and I decided I want a cutting table with storage like the one you just made here. I am going to have a lot to do....But I love the table and I hope you like your new sewing space!! I always love mine after I do the declutter challenge. I wake up forgetting that I decluttered and it looks completely different!! It is kind of a shock, but a good one!! Thanks Karen!!!
You're pretty handy. Good to see that you can router MDF...I would have never considered it before seeing it done.
Great job getting your space in shape.
I love seeing another handywoman! Congratulations on making something that works for you. Love your ideas.
Be aware that humidity builds up in the wool pressing mats with a heavy pressing session. I damaged the oak top of a chest of drawers. Even with a heat reflective pressing sheet beneath. Ended up putting a new surface on top: towel to prevent slipping, giant bamboo cutting board, heat reflective mat (rubber backing so it doesn't slide on top of cutting board) then wool mat. No moisture gets past cutting board.
If I'd had a piece of scrap glass that would have been a bit thinner than the cutting board.
I'm fortunate to have a large sewing space available. I'm unfortunate to have a large sewing space available because I have an uncanny knack for filling up space with "stuff"! Cautionary tale for those of us who repurpose existing furniture. I have cherry dining table (used for staging) with 2 extensions that made for a perfect sewing surface. HOWEVER, a heavier sewing machine in the middle of a fully extended table, puts stress in the middle. I noticed that my table was bowing down. The weight of the machine had caused the screws to slowly be pulled out of the extension rail. Thank goodness I found it before it collapsed and tossed my machine (either on the floor or my lap). I fixed the issue by putting in mid support.
Your new set up is great! I'm a little biased though because mine is very similar. I DIY'd my big table out of the same Kallax units as you, but I got the long white laminate countertops (2) instead of the butcher block (too rich for me!), and I drilled the casters directly into the bottom of the Kallax units after attaching them with mending plates and L brackets. I love it so much!
Before I had a studio space that could accommodate such a large table, I bought one of those Husky tables! Then another, and then another. So I have all three sizes, and I use the biggest one for my ironing station.
I do still have a sewing set up at home, and I agree with your friends about the difficulty of moving projects around, as well as tools and supplies. I've gotten in the habit of doing all my cutting at the studio, and some tools I've purchased a duplicate set of to minimize frustration. Still figuring it all out (2 years later!), and it's not perfect, but it's much better than sewing out of my bedroom.
I hope you love your new space. It looks wonderful!
I am determined to keep the sewing out of my bedroom too
Looks great Karen! I'm very jealous. I might have to show my husband your work. And If I do happen to take this route I'll be visiting Lowe's. It's closer to my house! Thank you for sharing. 🤗
Thanks, Surprisingly I needed that boost talk about Noom to get back to it!
This week I've been trying to reorganize my sewing/guest room. It started out as a giant headache when my son came back for Christmas and he had lost his room, so I lost my sewing room. One thing I learned is that I need many storage boxes, though I've always hated the plastic kind. Looking at Ikeas stuff, I really liked some of your choices but I know I need some boxes that are only 4 inches high. Each day I learn something. My husband gets dragged out most days for ideas. You've been a great inspiration, thank you!
My sewing room was a disaster after all my Christmas sewing. I actually asked Santa for a new vacuum that can handle thread. Sometimes, i just miss the garbage. Anyway, I cleaned up my floor, vacuumed, moved things around, and vacuumed again. I love my new space. It is still small but feels bigger. Now, I definitely need to go through my fabric that I have tucked away in an extra dresser in my bedroom. My daughter needs the dresser back.
Heee, I live in a studio apartment over my daughters garage. My sewing room is an 18” x 4’ space at the end of my bed. Hey, it works!
Great job, I wish a had a room big enough for that table you built, I love it. So wish you lived closer so I could attend one of the classes you provide. Take care, R
I have a husky table as well, but I moved the bottom brace to the back instead of the middle, so I can store a few rolling carts under the table.
I have a similar cutting table. I used two book cases and the top is wood my Hubby already had. He cut it and put pretty trim on the edges. I stained the top to match the book cases. I also have the long edge overlap more on one side. I found two comfortable stools that slip underneath.
Wish I had the over hang on my cutting table..... and if I had more space, I'd love the larger size
Your ingenuity if fantastic. I made the rolling ironing boards and store all my stuff on it. It's fantastic! Thank you for these ideas and walkthroughs. As a new homeowner things like this are great as I'm trying to organize my spaces.
Congratulations! That's a lot of work.
This goes on the right, and this goes on the left.....Chefs call that 'Mise en Place'.
Basically, setting up your workspace so that you can get the exact tool you need without having to look for it.
A word of caution...since you elected to use MDF, it would be a good idea to paint wherever you trimmed, or cut the MDF.
Use a putty knife to cover the roughed up area of the MDF with spackle. Sand and paint to give a nice smooth finish to the MDF, and get rid of that weird furry look that MDF usually gets
What a great video! You are delightful! I love all you created/made/ designed! Excellent 🫶🏻👏🏻👍🏻👍🏻
great idea! i have a table like yours but it needs to be streamlined...
Love your new sewing space, Karen. And your ingenuity creating a large cutting table is fabulous. And the adjustable husky table was a surprise. You solved one of my problems before I realised what I needed. Thanks so much.
I’m so jealous that your space is large enough to accommodate all the great organizational things I so covet! Congrats and thanks for sharing. Just think how much fun the 2024 declutter is going to be with all those new cubby holes!! Helpful hint: don’t put something somewhere “for now “ only to pick it up and move it again later. This is called stuff shifting and is useless. Put it away the first time and voila! Future work and decisions are eliminated. Happy weekend all!!
I have that same Husky table in my sewing room and I love it.
I made a similar island last year and just love it. IKEA and Home Depot! A few suggestions to anyone thinking of this: I placed the two cabinets on separate pieces (HD melamine shelving so they were white like the cabinets). They clamp together, or will separate to fit out the door if I ever need to move to a different room. Also, added a top, removable layer of HD styrofoam insulation sheets (they come in multiple thicknesses and sizes and are easy to cut) covered that with ironing board fabric. Now I can pin into the top, iron on it, or lay out my cutting mats…such a functional island! Karen, I’ll look forward to your tips about managing two sewing spaces as you progress…you always find us such great ideas. Wishing you good health and grateful for all you share.
Awesome build! That slot left in the middle is so perfect for a pull-out. Skinny storage for skinny things like rulers❤️
Us quilters NEVER have to much storage 😂😂😂😂😂😂. What an awesome setup. Love it. 👍🏻👍🏻
I always admire your ability to build out exactly what you need!
I love your practical straight forward approaches to the problems you’ve had. I always learn something when I watch you sharing! Thanks Karen. 👍
Love your drop side sewing table !
I'm/ also interested in the pattern shown about 10 min in, blues and tan/yellow, maybe strips/log cabin offset? Would like to get the name/designed. I've been watching your videos now for..2-3 yrs? Always inspirational. You do make it look easy and practical.
Love your videos. I noticed you are putting your wool mat directly on the butcher block surface. FYI I did that on an end table and realized the heat and spray caused condensation that damaged the wood surface. You may want to add an old cutting mat under the wool mat to prevent any damage.
Well done on the counter sinking animation!
small suggestion, and I don't know if it'll work for your workspace or not, but you could consider attaching some pegboard to the sides of the kallaxes that aren't open and hook things onto it.
My husband is doing Noom and wow! It works!! Good for you getting a new sewing space! I love the picture of you under all the boxes that was awesome and made me laugh. Happy sewing!!❤️❤️❤️❤️
Love watching your shows Karen, and am eagerly awaiting your progress on your fitted jacket. Have I missed the posts or have you stopped that work?. Still a dressmaker at heart, I loved the pattern fitting segment. Have tried this with reasonable success, but a sewing buddy would be a really handy gadget! Cheers from South Australia x
I can relate as I have a Murphy bed in my sewing room. For 6 years it was my only guest room Now I have a full guest room again so the Murphy bed rarely needs to be used.
Your doing a great job, very informative. Don’t let the steam from your iron and wool pressing mat ruin your new table tops.
So excited to see you got a Husky table! I bought 2 of them with drawers, 62” long, & use them in an L-shape or butt them together for a 4x5 foot cutting & crafting table. Best. Table. Ever.!! Hubby built me a craft room last summer, & I love having ALL my stuff in one room instead of 5 scattered throughout the house! Congratulations on your new space!
Very timely. Last night I decided that the time had come to strip 4 pieces of mis-matched furniture and a stack of tubs from my sewing space and draw up plans to have new built in units installed. Great job Karen and you can never have too much storage space💗🇦🇺
Did you know Container Store Our Deep Sweater boxes, or 2 Our Sweater boxes, our 1 Our Sweater and 2 Our Shoe boxes fit perfectly, exactly, in the squares of an Ikea Kellax! I have them everywhere! I use those as all my project and storage bins. Great video, I too have been researching my options for sewing table in my kitchen/living room and not finding things that check all my boxes.
I’ve had this problem so many times… I think at least once a year as my family dynamics change. Good luck
What an inspiration 🌞 My sewing space has been in my dining room - but I decided over Christmas it would be nice to have my dining room back. I am blessed with a very large bedroom and I figured by moving the bed just a few inches I could move my sewing table in and still have room. I reorganized my fabric and I found space for my bookcase. A good part of my walk-in closet is devoted to fabric. Now I need to have some folks over for dinner 🥳
The sides of the smaller Ikea cabinet would be a great place for some command hooks to hang miscellaneous items.
Love your videos. I spend about half of my free time organizing and shifting my stuff. To me it's part of the fun and challenge of being creative.
Just over the top,Karen. My friend has one of the Husky tables too. Workhorse great!
But your new sewing storage cutting table.. blew my socks off. Love the storage you invented and the guys did a great job helping you out too. Love the wood trim pieces being put to use. Beautiful Finished Project. The whole room is great. Happy sewing
Amazing - you have so many talents!
Love this video! My last sewing room was tiny and cluttered. It was our office/greenhouse during winter/sewing room and there was too much furniture to function. When we moved, I scored a giant loft for my sewing. I was then gifted a bar-height dining room table that has changed my sewing!! I'm so in love with my sewing studio, and I love yours too! Hopefully it fosters lots of creativity!
You are such an inspiration ,I couldn't put furniture together if I had to,I like your "can do" spirit ,prayers for you !
Thank you for the GREAT idea on the sewing table and storage. You have given me some ideas on how to get more storage for endless projects that are still in boxes. Thank you
Love your new digs. It is hard when older chicks come home to roost. I have a Tee Shirt😂. You will love the Husky table! Hubby built me a small place to move my sewing things and the Husky is an added bonus. ❤
Great video! I totally hear you on muscle memory. When I had a secondary commuter home, I used hand sewing there. Now while my studio is in my basement, that sewing basket lives upstairs and holds my mending tools. Thanks.
You are not only talented, you are amazing! I was in awe over your design and construction after your research and preparation. Wow!
I did something similar for my sewing space, using homemade plywood cubbies specially designed to accept the plastic drawers and bins I'd been using to store my notions and project bins. I have two of them, each topped with butcher block countertops, and each on wheels so that I can arrange them to create whatever size and shape of table that I need in the moment. I sew standing up, so my sewing table and cutting table are one and the same.
I have the wonderful tables from Home Depot in both my sewing room and my glass studio.
Thank you so much for these videos. I am in the process of also moving my sewing room to a smaller space and these ideas really help. Looking forward to your new sewing room !
"I love putting together Ikea furniture" Me too! That's not something you hear too often. I even thought if I needed a side gig someday, I would hire myself out to put together other people's flat-pack furniture 😆😆😆
Happy for you! 🪡
We did the same table set up also. Ikea, home depot and harbor freight.
Bernadette Banner also had a video where she designed her own sewing worktable for her NYC apartment much as you did yours, only she used 2 dressers as supports for the tabletop and it was definitely not movable. While not everyone has handypersons with tools available, it's good to remember that DIY is an option when you can't find Functional Furniture that Fits. ;)
Adding commercial casters at the bottom of the dressers creates a moveable surface.
My sister and brother in law thrifted cubbies similar to yours (no shelf backs, tho) and we mounted them on plywood with casters and used a whole sheet of plywood on the top. If I ever move, it will have to be taken apart. I love it.
I love your honesty, my sewjo has been challenged since the Christmas break. I have done some decluttering but very little sewing. Health issues play a part. You are so practical and just get on with it so thankyou for the inspiration.
Great video! I sure hope you do feel better tomorrow. 🤞🏼💗🙏🏻
WOW!! What an amazing work space! I'm totally impressed with your creation of the table!!
Hi Karen, thanks to your series I got my sewing space sorted ! It looks too good to use... You are doing such a great job for yourself now, well deserved. Thanks for all the help.
I'm so happy for you.
Excellent video, very helpful. Thank you ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I love your sewing studio. Can't wait to see what all you will do to make it workable.
Congratulations on your weight loss achievements 👍🏼
Just a thought. Could you use the smaller bookcase sides for hanging rulers or templates on hooks or pegboard. Just a thought. Hope it helps. LIke watching your videos in Missouri thanks go sew. Lori Anderson
This is all such good advice, thank you for continuing to be such a positive force on RUclips and to inspire so many of us to create our best work! I have been following you from nearly the start and i love your work. I am an activist quilter (i sit and quilt with strangers and talk about hard questions) and i really appreciate your content. Go in peace
Thank you ☺️
Loved this video. My husband built me a table ver similar to yours just not as wide due to space, but it is 72 long. We combined IKEA dressers and bookcases on top for storage as well. I absolutely love my space!!!
It’s going to be great to get your new space just right so that you can enjoy sewing there 🎉 Hopefully you get everything just where it needs to be soon 🤞🤞 Love the glimpses of the gorgeous quilts you have on your walls 🥰🇬🇧
You are one smart lady!! You are so amazing!
I like the concept of "muscle memory" in the placement of your tools. I have two setups for two machines, and when I need to use the secondary machine, it take me a whole lot of determination to keep going. I'm going to see if I can change the placement of some of my tools to see if that helps. Thanks for the idea!
