As many of you know, five weeks ago our basement flooded due to a sump pump failure (yes, we had a backup that failed at the same time). This resulted in a major renovation project. In the process, Mr. Wonderful and I traded spaces. He got my old sewing room for his office and I got the big room for my sewing space. There are a few details that need finishing (closet and some trim) but it is pretty much done and ready to use. So here is the grand tour. First view is coming down the stairs into the sewing room. Hubby’s office is to the right.
Moving to the left, you can see my big white storage cabinets.
My long arm sits directly in front of these. My toy sewing machine collection is displayed on top of the cabinets. Moving around the corner to the left is my design wall.
Then my newly painted sewing cabinet with my vintage Singer 201.
Next is a sitting area that will be tweaked to become a play area when Baby E and Baby L are a little older.
To the left of the sitting area is a closet, my poly batting, and my wire basket system which holds my stash.
The doorway to the left is a full bath and the door immediately to the left of that goes to hubby’s workshop. Next is my repainted desk holding my Bernina 1030, a great workhorse of a machine!
Next is my computer area and to the left of that is my embroidery machine. It has to be connected to the computer so they had to stay together.
That brings us back to the beginning.
Well, almost. I created an island in the center of the room. There is a support column right in the middle that I had to work around. Actually, that isn’t as bad as it sounds since that column has an outlet for my iron. The island is made up of two of my vintage enamel tables, my ironing table and a workspace made from IKEA components. There is an opening in the middle just right for the column. Here are pics:
I love having my dies stored so close to my studio cutter. I also love my storage under the long arm.
And the cart hubby found for me:
This contains frequently used items and can be wheeled around to wherever I need it.
I am sure there are many details I missed and things I will change and move along the way. If you want to see my old sewing room, click here.
I am so thankful to Mr. Wonderful who worked so hard to make this beautiful space a reality for me. I am blessed!

what an awesome space!!! Its got great flow.
I like your sewing machine table. Did you get it recently? If so, can you say the brand and where you got it from. I like the simplicity of it with the recessed machine drop and space available. Also, love your sewing area. It is beautiful.
Great organized space, congrats on your new room. Time to sew!
it is a lovely space…and lots of room to really make it a wow as time goes by…
Looks lovely! I hope you never see flooding again. I’m not sure I would want to take a chance on getting my sewing room ruined by water.
How wonderful! Thanks for the tour! You’ve inspired me to keep chugging away at getting mine finished. And . . . I’ve been contemplating painting my Singer cabinet, and thanks to you, I now know it will work!
New space is much nicer than the old space////you have it all
Your room looks lovely. What a wonderful room to do all your creating in. Have fun. Hugs,
Wow! a crafter’s dream room. So organized and functional. Mr. Wonderful did a great job.
Wow!!! That looks amazing!!!
Haha! I am having a hard time going to work this week! I never thought I would have a space like this. God truly specializes in silver linings. Thanks for stopping by! Katy https://katyquilts.wordpress.com/
Thank you so much for sharing. I especially loved the island in the middle.
Beautiful and so fun!
Yay! It looks great 🙂 I love that red cart! I made a trip to the 19th ave SAS, and it was awful again. I won’t go there anymore probably. Just wanted you to know, stick to the Indian School store!
This is a wonderful set up nd will be pure joy to sew in. I’m sure you will quickly come to call this your happy space!
I am so jealous of your beautiful floor and white cabinets!! It’s great and I look forward to seeing what you create in this beautiful new space.
When can I come over and sew with you in your fabulous room? lol!
Wow! Just wow! A new grand baby to spoil and now this…I think you’re all set! I hope you enjoy both for many years to come!!

I like your wall of cabinets. I have been considering something similar. Are they from a big box store? They would keep my mess out of sight. Thanks for the tour.
Katy, your old space was great but this is awesome!
Wow! I just love all that space. Lucky you.
Amazing! I especially love the under the longarm storage tip – apparently I have a lot of space I hadn’t even considering stacking stuff : P
This is a dream of a sewing space!
Wow, yo have such a fabulous space in which to work! I love how unique your tables/desks are!
WOW! You’ve been VERY Busy and it shows – totally Awesome…Enjoy!

Love the room. You are truly blessed.
Your new set up is great. I’m sure Mr. Wonderful didn’t really need all of that space and it was nice of him to trade with you.
Wowsers!! You are blessed to have that space. Enjoy
Wow it is so big! I love your rolling cart with frequently used items.
I was impressed with you old setup but this is fabulous! You must be so thrilled!
Wow, just wow! You are so lucky to have such a great space. Fantastic! Congrats!
Oh my goodness, if I had a new sewing studio like that I don’t think I would be able to leave it. I have to stay there for at least a week maybe more. I LOVE it!!
What an awesome new studio! I love how you have it all organized and completely functional. I can’t wait to see what you create next!
Wonderful sewing room. I love the button rug, the kids will love that when they get older too. Almost like a twister game! I still love the red desk!
What a great sewing room.. I especially like how you’ve organized around the pole, used space under the long arm, and planned for small visitors! Hope you enjoy it for a long time!
This room is now amazing. The flooring turned out really nice. You made the most out of your space. Awesome room that anyone would love to work in.
Super finish! You are a lucky chick!
this space looks wonderful — I know you must be super excited about working in there.
This looks amazing! Congrats on having such a great space to utilize! 🙂
