    Was anyone else taking notes? I would be totally prepared if there was a pop quiz lol. This entire video is sprinkled with a ton of little golden nuggets that pretty much anyone can apply to whatever space they are creating in. Plus you can see that this space actually functions with real world applications, and isn't the usual 'pristine pinterest sewing room' tour🙄 This was a lovely video to watch and thank you for sharing! ❤

    Dear Laura-thank You for this lesson in ergonomics. I was sewing all day last week and woke up with a shooting pain in my neck and was worried. I went down to my sewing area after your video and saw that my sewing machine is too high for my chair (I don’t have 90 degree angle with shoulders and elbows. I will be replacing my chair with an adjustable one and planning my sewing room changes with the principles you taught me.

    Laura, thank you for sharing. After I lost my husband I moved by my kids to Portland, Oregon, no basements in this area. So I searched for a home with living room open to dining room , it’s my dream sewing studio. Since I have a separate kitchen open to family room I’m all set. I used PVC too!

    It's a lovely and functional space and I love the old machines - I learned on a treadle back in the early 50s that was my grandmother's. And I was given a 3-tier version of that sewing box that folds out, I think around 1962. It's been through several refurbishing rounds and I still use it today!

    Great video Laura! I loved the tour of your new sewing room. You have given us so many good and practical ideas. I love the story of the evolution and history of your sewing path. My father bought my mother a beautiful Singer sewing machine and cabinet when I was just a baby. That is 60+ years ago now. My sisters and I learned to sew on that faithful machine. I think each of us would like to inherit that machine one day. I purchased a White treadle sewing machine when I was visiting in Chicago for $35. The people were hapoy to get rid of it. I was thrilled with such a treasure. I hauled it in the bed of a pickup truck all the way to Alaska, so I could sew without electricity. I sewed lots of baby clothes for my daughter with that beautiful machine. Thank you for sharing your life and stories with us.

    Now that my daughters are married and our nest is empty I have a second bedroom I use. It's not very big but it's ok. We moved recently and I'm disabled so I'm still working on getting it organized but I have the furniture set up.

    Greetings from Garland, Texas. Thank you so much for your video. I'm so happy for you. I got so many ideas from you. I closed in my garage to turn into my sewing room. I'm so blessed to have this space for myself and I'm wanting to really use it wisely.
