SereniteaSB on Mar 23, 2016Hope this helps. My cutting and sewing room is in the same space. There are many times that I have to go back to the cutting table, and think it would be hard to have to walk into another area farther away.Helpful Reply

Lynne Krywulycz on Mar 23, 2016I agree with SereniteaSB about cutting and sewing room together. You have an office which could be in the seperate area allowing it to be used for homework, school projects (if you have young ones living inyour house). or other projects which require a serene, uncluttered area to work. Looks great - am persuing a similar laundry/craftroom project myself at present so found your post very interesting.Helpful Reply

Ranger on Mar 24, 2016Make one wall or part of one wall a blackboard - a great place for ideas, sketches etc. I have whiteboards but I always go to the blackboard; chalk is cheaper than whiteboard pens and you can buy the blackboard paint and do it yourself. A quick 'wet wipe' and old ideas are gone, ready for new ones!Helpful Reply

Dfm on Mar 24, 2016just a thought- move your laundry a bit closer to the stairs. growing up, the laundry machines were in the opposite corner from the stairs- had to carry it thru what amounted to be 3 other rooms. my magic triangle for the sewing room? ironing board, cutting table and sewing machine. did not happen in my new space- room very skinny, but long. depending on what you sew ..... an audition wall is helpful....does this fabric work with this one or not? p.s. i quilt...Helpful Reply

Stahli Claassen on Mar 24, 2016Have you ever thought about putting the cutting table on wheels? I don't know about the rest, they all look like good options.Helpful Reply

Johnchip on Mar 24, 2016The more open and portable (rollable, movable furniture pieces) your space to move around in the more options you leave open to be a creative worker as your design and project ideas grow. And don't ignore "air space". Especially for hanging rolls of fabric, paper, etc..from ceiling or upper wall spaces.Helpful Reply

Ranger on Mar 25, 2016I was thinking about this more last night. If enough wall space, I pictured columns of blackboard and pinboard - equal width. Something like that...Helpful Reply
