Please stop playing the music, makes it hard to hear what you're saying, and I'd like to hear what you're saying. 😊

I love seeing this light filled and well-organized space where it all happens!

By the time I find everything I need for my project I no longer am wanting to do it! I love these ideas. Dream big!

My biggest challenge is enough space! I am thankful that my husband puts up with all of my "stuff" on our side of the bedroom, but I dream of my own sewing room someday! At least the days of all of my sewing piled up on the dining room table are far behind me! :)

My sewing room needs a HUGE overhaul.

The Organizational course has been the single best resource for increasing my productivity.

Love the great tips. Love how you have the fabric folded on the shelves. Very nice tip. Also love how you have dolls on display in the sewing room. It looks so pretty . We have our fabric scraps in a wooden toy box in ziplocks.

Brilliant! Thanks Cinnamon! My biggest challenge is organizing my fabric.

I'm always envious of those who have beautifully put together sewing rooms. I use cube storage units and bookshelves, but I'm so busy and have so much that it rarely looks so put together. It is organized, however. I sew for several dolls, sizes and makers and keep patterns according those parameters in plastic scrapbook boxes, clipping the pattern pieces together or using clear plastic bags within the box. So I may have as many as 10 patterns in one box for that one doll. I've tried other systems but this works for me. Makes it easy to put them away quickly and as I go, too.

What a beautiful room. Finding space for all my fabrics is a great challenge for me.

the best sewing room organisation series i never found on youtube

I folded up my scraps and store them in shallow plastic bins meant for papers and folders. They are stored folded side up and are organized by color. They easily stack on each other and it’s so easy to see what fabric I have. Best system I’ve found.

I love the idea of the kitchen island! Better height and look at all that storage space and it's on casters so can move it everywhere!

I recently found some solutions in my new sewing room. Thank you for these conversations

For small fabric scraps, a clear plastic shoebox for each color is one solution. For thread, I found some plastic double sided tackle boxes that the spools fit in. They work great! I like your ribbon spools.

I purchased two 12-Cubby units where I fold my fabric and stack them into the cubbies, organized by color. I started storing my scraps in clear totes by colors. Although that works, I found that I might need either a different way of storing the scrabs or an additional storage venue. I am leaning more to an additional storage. For the scraps that are too small for making a doll outfit but small enough to make into a quilt for dolls and other quilts, I am currently in the process of cutting them down into strips and storing by size of strips. squares, triangles along with adding an extra tote for Christmas fabric scraps.

I don’t have a sewing room, but if I did patterns would be in order and fabrics tools and notions would be in their respectful space. I am a real stickler about organization. The video is really helpful.😘❤️

My biggest challenge is just having a room big enough devoted to storing & using everything I have! Love the ideas here-- I'd sort the small bits of fabrics into clear shoe boxes that can easily stack on shelves or inside closed cabinets, organized first by main colors & then within each color box also separated by solids vs. prints/patterns. I like the vertical fabric storage idea for easier access (wrapped on cardboard), but you likely need custom cabinetry to efficiently store & separate the bolts of fabrics (both vertically & horizontally). I have found stacking fabrics makes it harder to get to pieces near the bottom without the whole stack falling over & then needing refolding.

Great tips! Organizing my fabric stash is my biggest challenge.

Love the pegboard idea, especially using the non nail method of hanging it on the wall.

Small piece of fabric are so useful! Doll clothes or scrap quilting! I keep mine in a rolly cart so they stay clean and neat!

Fabric has been my biggest challenge, but you have some great ideas.

My biggest challenge when sewing is having what I need clear across the room from where I’m working. The measuring tape is on the ironing board when I’m at the sewing machine 😂 I love the idea withe pegboard for thread and the comment about small bags for scraps sorted by color!

Those smaller pieces I fold onto fat quarter size and have them lined up in a large shallow wire basket. They’re set on their edge and sorted by color. Works great to see what I have available.

`I work with smaller amounts of fabric so keep mine in small plastic containers with lids. I keep them in color order, which works best for me. I think this method might work well for you for your scrappier or smaller piece fabric. If you don’t have room for a lot of plastic containers, they do make storage containers with drawers or several divided spaces. If I have larger quantities of fabric, bulkier or speciality fabric, I roll it and stand it upright in a rope style basket. Your room looks nice. Thanks for sharing.

I've begun wrapping my fabric on cardboards for storage, and I love the way that makes things easy to see and easy to access. I keep coming back to arranging my fabrics by color. Somehow, that is just easier for me see what I have available. I really like the peg board idea--I just need to find a place to put it!

The most challenging thing to keep organized whilst sewing is the patterns I am using and adapting. I keep each pattern in a labelled manilla envelope w/photo on the front, carefully label each piece as to whether it is a 100% original, an enlargement or reduction, and if it has been otherwise altered. This really helps when coming back to a project after a break, so I can easily pick up where I left off--or know which was my most recent version of the adaptation so I can sew another one.

Thanks for the tour! I like to store my fabric by type & color. Cottons, knits, & fancy fabric are my main categories. My small remnants are rolled, tied with surplus yarn or fabric strips & placed in baskets on my sewing room shelving. I agree that it helps to see what I have or I forget it’s on hand.😊

I like keeping my fabric on bolts and mini bolts (comic book boards) stacked like books, by type and by color! I think it’s easier to get what I want off the shelves easier! My fat quarters are neatly folded in clear plastic she boxes and small strips I put into sterlite drawers ! Thank you for the tour!

Thanks for this tour. It has inspired me. My biggest challenge is fabric scraps. I do sort by color.

Thanks for the tips! Definitely organizing my fabric stash is my biggest challenge!

My issue right now is that I have acquired sewing supplies from multiple people and really need to go through things. I've been using the clear plastic shoe storage boxes for things and that is really helpful. I also have large 1 gallon jars that had pickles and such in them from restaurants and they are invaluable for larger collections.

Your room is awesome! Wish I had that much fabric and it’s so beautifully organized.

Enjoyed your video! You gave me many ideas on how to improve my sewing space! i don't have as much space as your room and that is what my challenge will continue to be.

“My biggest sewing organization challenge is finding a good way to keep all my trims and fabrics organized.

Thanks! I might try that Command tape and peg board.

Fabric organization and storage is my biggest challenge.

I could only wish my room looked like this!

My fabric is folded vertically and stored in drawers. Same with my threads, stored in drawers. Keeps everything dust free. 😊

For my smaller material, I iron them and roll them on empty paper rolls and store them in clear file storage containers.

Thank you for the ideas. I greatly appreciate them since I'm limited on space in my small house.

keep it tidy! Cleaning up goes well, but then it often goes wrong again.

This video is amazing! Someday I hope to be this organized.

I loved your command hook tip. I'm definitely going to use that one.

Love the pegboard ideas.

Thanks for all of the great ideas! I love your color scheme too!

Good ideas for organizing sewing space!

I store by fabric type, and then by colour. For the smaller pieces I have bins for the different colours. Mine are solid bins, but from what you said about being visual, you would probably work better with clear bins.

Beautiful room (love the color). #goals!

The most challenging thing to keep organized when sewing is thread matched with their bobbins.

Great organization and beautiful room!

Beautifully organized working space!!!

Loved the video, very organized not sure if I will ever be that organized but I still can find most things I am looking for.

Would love to have all the shelves and drawers to organize!

I have 3 small bins in my sewing for #1 work in process #2 finished work#3 projects to come. Now mind you, most of my sewing is for 18” dolls, so there isn’t an overwhelming abundance of fabric

What wonderful ideas and helpful tips Happy New Year!

Smaller pieces of cardboard will allow you to store the smaller fabric scraps vertically. I was just inspired to try that with a stack of roughly letter-size cardboard harvested over the years from file folder packaging. Some became disc binder dividers with pretty paper, and used others to stiffen/stabilize mailing envelopes, but now I see their potential for fabric storage...

My mom is a quilter/fabric hoarder. She used the cardboard method so when it’s finally in her shelves it’s neat and tidy.

Thanks for some great ideas for storage

My most challenging thing to keep organized when sewing is patterns. I always have multiple projects in different stages going on and sometimes pattern pieces can get mixed up.

Thanks for the storage ideas!

Thanks for the tips!

Love your organization ideas

Great ideas!

I store mine on bolts and cardboard depending on type and yardage. Most of my cottons are on cardboards stord like books on a shelf. I have used this way for years and love it. Heavier weight materials store on bolts. I have floor to ceiling shelves. One wall is all cottons the other is garment sewing fabric.

Very helpful video!

thank you for sharing your ideas and solutions. Love the pegboard!! Have had one for years but never used it the way you describe..

Love your studio!

Great video, very helpful!

For fabric storage I use products by Polar Notions. They’re pricey but they are sturdy and last forever. They sell mini bolts for large pieces of fabric and they have smaller units that were designed to hold fat quarters but I use them to hold any useful small pieces of fabric.

I have a 13x15 room but there's also along arm in it for quilting. I'm trying! I think that I need to get rid of a lot of duplicate things...great tips Cinnamon!

Some very useful ideas.

Great tips

Awesome!!

You have a beautiful space to work in! I prefer to keep fabric types separate and organize each type by colour.

Storing fabric by type is best for me but I'm a garment sewer. Your storage room is similar to the size of mine. Try to have one area where you store your office stuff and try and put it all in one box. Put all books and magazines in one cubby, remove the corkboard, and only have your magazine rack for your ideas. Well, those are my suggestions.

keeping colors seperated is my biggest challenge!

Thanks for the great ideas and tips. I sooo need to be better organized.

Thanks for sharing.

For the smaller pieces of fabric you have in bags, I would probably get smaller clear totes (preferably the kind that stack easily) and sort by color. I would also then challenge myself to work through it in some way. Ex. As soon as I make one item using the scrap fabrics then I can make one or two items with a new fabric I’m excited about. I found if I don’t do something like that then I will never get through it.

I wrap all my fabric either on rolls for large amounts or on 3 different sizes of card board. 11 by 9, 5 1/2 by 9, 3 by 4. It works for me

Wish my room looked as great as yours!

She's got great ideas

Very nice.

Good ideas!

My biggest sewing organization challenge is trying to keep my sewing table cleared enough so that I can sew something. I have too many sewing items on the go at the same time.

My most challenging thing to keep organized is my smaller pieces of material for doll clothes sewing.

My most challenging thing to keep organized when sewing are the scrap pieces of fabric that are still useful but too small to store with uncut fabric.

Thank you for the advice n giveaways

Great ideas for the pegboards. I'd never thought about using the smaller frames. Also, I have concrete walls and was wondering if I could hang a larger peg board, so THANK YOU!

The most challenging thing to keep organized when sewing is the enormous amount of fabric I keep accruing!

My biggest challenge is Fabric! I want to organize not only by color but by type of fabric! I just don’t have enough space!

I make a lot of small things and I have three tier rolling carts in my room and I keep all my small bits of fabric in the cart and can just roll it over to where I'm working. I have a separate cart for lace and trims.

Besides organizing fabric scraps, I've recently had challenges keeping track of my props for vendor shows. I like to create scenes at my shows-it draws people in just to look, which is fun, but also frequently results in sales, especially from doll collectors.

I have mine fabric folded on the shelf like you do but my daughter has hers wrapped around cardboard and standing up like you mentioned. I definitely get more inspired to sew when I look at her fabric!!! In the midst of renovating my sewing room (17'x11') so I think I will do wrapping my pieces. I don't know how to store my larger pieces...3+ yards?? I do have pegboard hanging but its just plain...I love the frame around it! Thanks for sharing your video!

My challenge is keeping all the things organize whether it be fabric, interfacing, buttons and having it look good in my sewing room.

My biggest challenge for keeping things organized in my craft room is having more than what will fit in my storage containers, either because we hit a great estate sale deal we couldn't pass up or someone cleans out their closet and donates it to us to use for ministry. We recently tackled the overabundance of fleece by making things for the homeless and pregnancy clinic, but we have so many other things that need used or given to someone else who will do something with it.

Your room is so pretty. I am working on mine now. Luckily I have a great closet and I bought some inexpensive bins in which I plan to store everything and LABEL them so I can find what I need fast. I am going to get rid of a couple of excess chairs. I threw out all scraps that were cheap fabric I bought years ago before I knew better. I have my fabric on comic book cards in a pretty bookcase and I like that method. I sort by color, and holiday. I mostly quilt so I plan to cut my scraps into squares and keep in bins, ready to use. I have an Accuquilt, which I LOVE, and so that will be easy. Big cuts, or kits, will be in a wire bin or basket. It is a work in progress. I also think I may put removable labels on the comic book boards with info. I may want to know when I go to use it. That could be the yardage, or designer, etc. Then I can peel it off and reuse the cardboard. Thanks for sharing your lovely teal room, and ideas!

My problem is that I am a perfectionist and a procrastinator. It makes it hard to get started! But seeing all these storage ideas makes me want to have a room like this!

Keeping my fabric organized is my biggest challenge.
