Everyone loves a pretty sewing studio. The only problem is, most of ours are hidden under piles of glorious fabric. Here are some gorgeous sewing studios that are absolutely stunning. They will leave you wanting to remodel your sewing space, just so you can find more places to hide stash all of that luscious fabric. Ha, ha. Let’s swoon together, shall we?

Kind of makes you want to renovate, am I right? Or at least, clean off your sewing table so that you can see the top of it! Lol.
So much eye candy.
Thanks so much for stopping by, and until next time…
Happy Sewing!
I was very satisfied with my sewing space until I saw these! I love the storage unit in the image from the Girl. Inspired.
Hi Jess, Thank you for including me in your list of studios! I love my space, but now I want another sewing studio in my house in the country, my cottage by the beach and loft in New York. 😉 Haha! Oh but a girl can dream, right?
So much eye candy! Thanks for sharing. I was thinking about redoing mine. I guess now I will be. Lol.
Closing in on renovating my own studio. These will inspire me to go that extra mile to complete my dream. Finish by Christmas is my goal. Two bouts with breast cancer, one appendectomy, a sister with MS, a colapsing roof, and NO OTHER PEOPLE to help with anything have been my crosses to bear. If I can sit in my own place and work, it’d be the best present to myself. Thanks for taking the time to inspire!
Doesn’t the sun fade all your fabrics, out in the open?
My fabric stash is in copy paper boxes whose fronts I covered with a neutral contact paper. Cheap, small enough for me to lift the boxes off the shelf and easy to look through.
While I love these studios, I am a costume maker. So I don’t have fabric is neat little squares. I usually have 2 to 10 yard pieces that don’t look beautiful stacked on a shelf. And I have a LOT! How do people store that kind of fabric stash? I have bins full of fabric stored under the stairs and in cupboards with a card file system to keep track of what I have, how much and where it is located. But I also have bags sitting around the perimeter of my studio with the rest of the fabric. I’m looking for ideas to store supplies for large projects where you have a large quantity of fabric and notions (elastic by the spool, interfacing by the bolt, over 1000 patterns, etc.)
I am working on my studio. We moved and the studio has about 1/2 the space. My last studio was a converted 2 stall garage that was extra long stalls. Well this studio is the 3rd floor of our new house that my husband is building. It is beautiful and I love it but I have to figure out how to fit it all in. My mother in law moved in the old house so right now the old studio is being used for storage while I figure out the new studio. Think fabric stores and how they store things. In both studios I needed a very large space to store bolts of fabric so my dear husband built me a wall unit. If you can’t find what you are looking for them you may need to build it.
I’m a costumer too, with lots of big pieces of fabric, much of it upholstery weight. I store most of it hanging on cardboard covered wire pants hangers. I’m thinking of putting two rows of hanging rods lengtheise under my 4×8 ft cutting table. Or else stacking three rods in my small closet.
I agree with Katherine – most of the examples, while beautiful, seem to be for someone who quilts or makes small projects out of fat quarters of quilting cottons. I need to store yardage of wools, linen, hemp, silk etc. – and protect it from moths as well as large collections of vintage fabrics, trims, notions, buttons, etc. etc. etc. I’m overwhelmed in my bedroom-sized space by large plastic totes stacked to the ceiling on wire shelving. Help! any ideas welcome <3
I found a book that had numerous ideas. The one that I picked I’m using bookcases to store my yardage of fabric. I only keep three yards folded max per piece of fabric. It does cause wrinkiling in the middle of the fabric but not as bad as 4 yards or more folded. I have everything sorted by color and would like to expand. Lol All of these photos gave me more ideas. THANK YOU
Lol! I love that a mouse House has a drawer labeled “crap”. ?
Ok, just asked my granddaughter if she wanted my almost new to me antique bedroom suite that I thought I couldn’t live without. A pretty, new, organized sewing/craft room is what I can’t live without. Now to break the news to the hubby, oh joy!!
I live in very sunny Australia and there is no way I can leave my fabric exposed to light, even indirect (ask me how I know this!Answer-ruined length of pure linen!). So far I have my fabric in numbered large plastic boxes with clip-down lids. I have a folder containing a sample plus details of all dressmaking fabrics I buy, and which box they are in. They might not look pretty but at least they are safe. I try to organise into wovens and knits, but that’s about the extent of it. Woe betide I lose the folder!! 🙂 When we move house, I have to try different permutations of box stacking…….
