Sewing Corner Renovations

My sewing corner is in need of some renovations. I've prettied it up with a chair cover, table skirts and neatening up the ironing table cover. So far, so good. Now I have a serger and suddenly my worktable seems so much smaller! I've measured out a space for an 19"x48" shelf for the corner wall. When the shelf (we just happened to have that exact size in the garage) is installed at the level of my existing table I will have a L-shaped workspace. The long side will be my sewing space and the short side will be my serging area. After installing the L-shelf, I want to put up some corner shelves to raise the TV/VCR up off the work table. And I need a shelf above the sewing area to hold sewing reference books. It's going to look really nice and it shouldn't cost too much, either.

Cozy Purple Pop of Color

Cozy purple throws for snuggling!  Adds some color  to the living room.  Thick fleece trimmed straight with rounded corners.  I tried some overcast stitches with my Juki however I couldn't get the look I wanted so I pulled out my serger. Gosh it's been, like 2 years since I used it but luckily it worked (I've had it for quite awhile but I'm still kinda afraid of it 😜).

Crafty Stirrings

My sewing stuff has been packed up for quite awhile and I miss it! It was packed up to make room for a season of extended visits by family which we have truly enjoyed so it was a worthy trade-off. Family visits will be done in a few weeks and in the meantime we decided that we'll be moving into a different house a few weeks later, so my sewing and craft things (other than sewing-related stuff I have just a few jewelry-making and scrap-booking supplies) will remain packed until it's arranged in our new abode. Focusing on family and transition decisions has taken up my mental space so it's just now, as I begin creating the vision of our next home I'm looking forward to having a sewing space again.
