My husband just bought my a new beautiful sewing machine. I am at awe everytime I sew something. My, have they changed over the years! I decided I needed to organize my sewing room, so I made a mat for my machine to sit on. Can't have it sliding around on me while I am creating a masterpiece. I added vinyl pockets so that I would have things up close when needed. I also added a little pocket on top of the mat to store my scizzors in. Seems I can never find them when I need them. The pocket opening faces me for easy grabbing in a pinch. I also added a chair caddy to make my chair even more comfy while sewing. I added pockets in the front so that I could easy find notions as I was ironing and etc. Oh my, I still have plans of making a caddy for my ironing board to hold press cloths, wooden iron, small ruler and etc. I am organizing so well, I think I need more notions! ;o)
This looks so good, I wish I could sew.
ReplyDeleteThat is a wonderful idea. I never thought of doing those things. Now that I can no longer sew they are things I would love to make ;=}

New sewing machines are always great fun! I hope you are still enjoying it.
ReplyDeleteI ran across your link on the Sewing Circle site this morning and browsed over a cup of hot tea.

I love all those things you have sewn and think I may have a go at something similar for myself. I could do with a padded chair back and also something to go under my machine front for holding scissors, pencil, tape etc.
