i make things (b36-w30-h42)
I now store all my woollens in plastic totes and add cedar balls or lavender sachets - so far so good! 🤞

Thanks for the comment - please check the alt text for a description. The yarn is a mystery sock yarn missing its label from my stash. The pattern is self-drafted with reference to @kateatherley.bsky.social Basic Ribbed Socks for the heel turn and gusset 🧦

Living room sewing definitely sounds warmer! 😅

As a fellow apartment dweller, I feel this ❤️ And also, I’ve gotten very creative with storage solutions out of necessity and space constraint 🧶 That said, when I did have an art studio, it was only 75sqft 🫣

Oh my goodness YES! Having an adjustable height workspace is revolutionary. I also have recently started adjusting my ironing board height depending on if I’m ironing yardage or pressing seams - I have a rolling chair and roll between the sewing machine and iron as needed when working on projects.

So dreamy! I love this 🥰

I definitely miss having a dedicated studio space for making where I could have my machines and cutting mats set up and ready to go 😅

So cute! It’s on my fall sewing list!

I’ve got my eye on Helen’s Closet Wildwood Jacket - if you’re looking for a quilted coat, it’s drafted for 33”-62” hip measurement. Not sure if that helps but it’s a slimmer fit style that may be easier to grade down as needed to your size.

It really is! Such a good scrap buster too 🧶

Yay for shorts! I recently sewed up a modded @stylearc.bsky.social Loddon Pant into shorts in an apron stripe blue chambray ✨
