    I love that you didn’t walk around with the camera, bending down and panning(too quickly). You did an awesome job of inserting the video clips of what you were referring to!

      Thanks so much! 😊 I wanted to make sure I showed EVERYTHING I talked about this time - slowly so you could really see it! Took me forever to record and edit - but I think it's well worth the time I put in! I'm quite proud of this video, glad you liked it!

    I love your room so much, especially the huge number of large windows. I love looking out to the forest. It’s a memorable room.

    Becca, one thing I’m finding in my own reorganization effort is that I need to know what I have and where it is. By approaching it that way, it’s like how you re-did your bookcase. I love what you did. It gives me a sense of real comfort in my room, as I bet it does in yours.

    I just came across your channel today and this was my first video of yours and I love your Quilting/Sewing room. Plenty of space and plenty of great ideas! Plus I just subscribed and am now curious to see what else you have in your video library! Thank you for sharing your room with us and I love how you made this video because a lot of people move the camera around and bend over with it and almost make one feel motion sick, so thank you for how you filmed this! Happy Quilting!!

    Wow! What a wonderful room. My sister is an avid seamstress and quilter. She is 7 years older than me, and always made me stylish outfits when I was little. I also learned to sew, but I not nearly as accomplished as her. Seeing your room helps me to understand more of what she does and how incredibly talented and creative she is. Thank you ☺️

    To display the panda block, you could loop a wonder clip through the handle of the binder clip so that it hangs flat & doesn’t crease the block or anything.

  • @Suzanka-d7y
    @Suzanka-d7y Рік тому +4

    My idea: I use my bed (when all of my blocks are done) as a design wall to decide the order of my squares. I then pile them up in order. I pin numbers on the piles for rows.

    • @sewbecca
      @sewbecca  Рік тому +1

      I've done that, too! If needed, I'm happy to do that, but if all I need to see is a row at a time, I'll admit I'm too lazy to go upstairs and use a bed! LOL

    Loved your sewing room tour. You articulated every area so well and it’s so aesthetically pleasing as well as a really efficient work space. Now I want to replicate it when I get my old sewing room back. My daughter and 3 children moved in so I’ve relocated to what was our lounge room, but the rumpus room is bigger and so much more sewing room friendly. I’m definitely going to put a few of your great ideas to good use in there in the future. 🌹❤️

    • @sewbecca
      @sewbecca  11 місяців тому +2

      No matter the space you sew in, it's still a finite amount of room. Making sure you have a good storage system to take advantage of wall space is key!

    What a wonderful sewing room. You have some fabulous equipment and great storage. I love that you properly converted it into a room putting in nice big windows and a door. So many garages that are used are still garages and are dark, gloomy spaces that look damp and uninviting.

You showed us.... I got it off Amazon (and as of today 2/17/24 it is $143).. I cannot tell you THANK YOU enough.. this light is AWESOME and so glad you showed us your room so I could get it!

    A possible solution for your design wall problem, a friend of mine took an old pull down projection screen mounted it too the top of her floor to ceiling book cases and lined it with flannel . She pulls it down when she needs it and lets it up when she doesn't even when has blocks on it.

It works for me. I'd love to have a sitting area like yours! And I love the Kallax units under your longarm...yes I noticed the labels right away, very elegant! I'm gonna have to look into copying your longarm setup, love it. Thanks for sharing. I can't imagine how long it took to organize your thoughts and gather links to make this video.

I'm sorry you didn't get a close enough look at the pink quilt hanging on my wall (called 'Spring Chicken') - but, my vlog from earlier this year (linked here: ua-cam.com/video/gGyx8YGMvxo/v-deo.htmlsi=-E7gwJQSr35IhTnC) shows that quilt in detail - both on the front, and the back - as well as a few others!

    Beautiful space and highly functional. It take time to personalize a space and a very thoughtful but rewarding task. Did you ever see the sliding design walk Irene of Sugaridoo has? It's really nice and functional, but if you would hang it behind you, it would hide your beautiful fabric. If you ever feel you need one, that would work well. Thanks for the tour!

I have lived here 35 years!! I bought it for my daughter and me. It is 1300 sq foot, 3 bedroom 2 bathrooms. I have 1 bedroom for a sewing room, he has the other to sit in all day and evening to watch news and read the "paper" on the computer and the other one is ours. I thought it would be a great house to retire in, I just didn't realize I would fall in love with quilting again after I retired? Who Knew? And Fabric designers!! What the HecK All that beautuful FABRIC. Ibsure do love what you have set up, it looks so beautiful. You have thought everything out so well and it is working just as you need it to.

    Martelli also makes a cutting mat that is just about 32” x 61”………nearly perfect sizing for a wood block table top at ikea. I added adjustable legs, and that is my cutting station. For pressing I used the same wood block table top with adjustable legs, and I covered it like this: first, aluminum foil down. Then a layer of Insulbrite. Finally a huge piece of heavy muslin or ironing board cover, and pull super tight, staple to the underside. BE SURE TO wash the muslin first. Gets rid of the weird sizing and lets it shrink. And it does shrink. A lot. Buy a lot extra. And now I found that the original company of the wool mat also makes one in a size that nearly perfectly covers the butcher block table!!

    Great storage ideas. I am about to reorganize my sewing room and will try some of your tips. I especially like the idea of the clear storage for the charm packs and such. I love the Ikea shelves too. My shelves are the open metal shelves and I cannot store my fabric upright on them. I have been storing them in clear totes, but you cannot really get a feel of what fabrics are stored inside. Thanks again. Looking forward to see what I can do to improve my sewing space. Have a great day.

    Happy Belated Birthday, Becca! What an awesome space!
    The larger bolts on the lower left (for viewers) - are those standard size bolt holders from fabric stores? I haven’t used comic book boards (yet) and have several 3-5yd cuts of 108” fabric. I do have several used bolt holders from Joann’s that I can use but wanted to check. How many yards of 44/45” fabric will fit on a comic board?
    Now I am rethinking my purchase of InterMetro wire shelving from The Container Store (always on sale; I rarely shop there and pay full price). I love the units because they are 18” deep and the shelves can easily be moved up or down as needed. They do not look as nice as Billy Bookcases would, though. I rent so I needed to get something easily disassembled that I can take anywhere. The smaller IKEA metal storage is not as great though a lot cheaper.
    This video has me seriously reconsidering how I have things set up. I need to do a thorough inventory which will take a while. Reorganizing immediately afterward would make sense.

    Absolutely love your sewing space and your explanation of choices ❤ ... my fav tip is the use of space beneath your Longarm and the labels. Great video 👏
