Home Tour 2015: The Sewing Room/Studio

by | Oct 9, 2015 | Home Tour

As the Home Tour continues, we travel upstairs. These stairs, all 17 of them.

At the top of the stairs to the left of the dresser, you can see light shining thru from my son’s bedroom. Jack is 17 and I believe that any parent with a teenage son can agree that no one wants to see that room. 🙂 But if you really want to all you have to do is take every piece of clothing you own and throw it on the floor. Walk on these clothes for several days, add some bowls with dried up cereal in them and add some tossed about wet towels to complete the picture.

That picture will not make an appearance on this blog. 🙂

Moving past Jack’s room and on your immediate left is the guest bedroom. I will share that part of the tour later in the month. Continuing down the short hallway is a bathroom on the right and then straight ahead and up two little steps, we enter my sewing room/studio.

I love this room. The previous owners originally used this area for storage and then updated it to be a media and exercise room. Now it has found its third purpose.

The window in the front faces West and the afternoon sunshine is glorious.

I have a large table in front of the window that holds my sewing machine and serger machine. The area behind that is my cutting table.

I debated cleaning and organizing every inch of the studio prior to taking pictures. But the thing is is that it never looks like that. There are always 2 or 3 projects going at the same time so in reality the studio is one big area of organized chaos.  🙂

Lining the wall are industrial racks and barrels of fabric. My Dad made me the black horizontal racks. Makes the room look so professional. Love it.

And finally, between the industrial racks, I have rows of finished pillow covers. These are covers that were made and then photographed to be listed in the shop. I offer several different sizes of covers so typically orders are filled when they are placed. These covers are just waiting for someone to order their size. 🙂

That is the sewing room/studio. I hope you enjoyed the tour!

This weekend in Minnesota is going to be unseasonably warm. Yahoo!!

I will share with you tomorrow on the SideNote Saturday post the outside item that won me over when we were considering buying this house.

Have a great weekend!
