Progress on Susan's Sewing Space

I  have had a lot of fun doing up my sewing space - it is starting to come together the way I want it.  Here are some photos:

Wardrobe doors covered in wadding to make a design wall (and so I don't keep catching glimpses of me!!)  And a favourite quilt I made in 2008 (Quilt Diva by Amy Bradley) - a great place to add buttons and charms. 


And notice boards and a fantastic calendar -  "A Wild Wacky Woman" calendar in fact.
 Shelving, a plug in fluorescent light - very handy!  (its under the shelf but you cant see it!)


A peg board - very handy for rulers.  And hanging long strips etc!


 A cupboard used as a small cutting table and ironing place and above it a great hanging rail and purple pots for cutters, scissors etc (from Ikea)

I also have a bed in here (in case I need a rest!!)

I am so happy to have this space - its been a loooong time since I had my own space.  I was very busy over the Christmas break - so hopefully my "productive mojo" is here to stay.

    Looks fantastic. I like the idea using the wardrobe doors as a design wall. And of the course the bed if you get tired, ♥♥♥

    Oh Wow!!! It's perfect... If I had this room at my place, I would never leave.. I'd just need a little fridge, maybe? Love that Quilt Diva wall hanging.. I've seen it before and fell in love with it. Enjoy your sewing space Susan!
