As I was taking pictures this afternoon, I was thinking...
...if I had sewing friends nearby I would have an open house where everyone could come over to eat, drink, and talk fabric...
I can't offer food and drink here but welcome to my new sewing studio, friends!

Don't you love the mini-bolts of fabric?? I now have no excuse for not shopping my stash first.
So now that you have seen some of my fabric, here are the less exciting parts...
 |
| More storage... |
Nope, not all of my fabric is out on the shelves. I had 200 boards to make the mini-bolts so the rest is in the cabinet. Most of it is large pieces for backing or smaller {less than a 1/4 yard} pieces.
Here's my design wall, sewing machine, and look at that neat scrap basket!
To the right of that is my cutting table with cute little dresdens waiting for a new project.
If you turn around you can see the fabric "art". The Amy Butler print on the top right is the last remnant of the first quilting fabric I ever purchased. So, let's just blame Amy for my fabric obsession love...
Here is Chaney's corner that she has personalized with her own crafts and important items to display. I love that she has her softball trophy on the shelf with her swimming ribbons hanging off...
And on your way out you can see my quilt waiting to be quilted and a cute little fabric wreath.
I still have curtains to make and some more projects to finish but I am officially in love and promise to keep this room clean and organized... most of the time. ;)
Thank you, thank you, thank you, to Steve for my new studio! And thanks to ya'll for visiting today!

I love your studio, it's so organized! It would be so fun to get together for coffee and a visit, I am in western Iowa, and we are having snow and sleet, Not too nich outside,
Patty :-)
Oh, this is so lovely and such a great thing to have your own studio! I wish you lots and los of happy hours spent in there! Thanks for the tour! It is so great that I can visit you even from switzerland!
Be blessed
Wow Jennifer! Your studio is gorgeous ... what a wonderful place to create in!!
Love the studio, especially the mini bolts of fabric so beautifully displayed. Thanks. It's great to visit from Australia.
Oh it's lovely! I love your little bolts of fabric, what a great way to store and display them. I'm totally jealous! Hope you have lots of happy sewing time there :-)
Good for you!
To have a beautiful, bright and spacious ( for now) sewingroom.
Even more inviting to start on a new (Amy Butler?) quilt.
By the way, I loved your coffee and brownies; they we're delicious ;)
Wow, your studio is amazing. I wish I lived around the corner so I could have the grand tour in person (and could shop from your amazing stash!)
I would definitely come over for some coffee, your studio looks fantastic and so inviting! :)
Love your studio set-up. I'm particularly fond of your fabric "art" collection with the first lot you used for a quilt. It's inspired me to perhaps do something similar myself. I'm also impressed that you're sharing it with your daughter. Mine is in a corner of my living room but fine for me at the moment. It's great to visit from London, Uk. :-)
It is truly dreamy! LOVE it!
What a wonderful studio! I'm so happy for you to have this space, and so jealous! Maybe someday. Great that I could visit all the way from snowy Michigan!
I could sit and look at your shelves/fabrics for hours :) What did you use for your mini bolts? I want to get some comic back board as it's really hard to justify spending a couple hundred dollars on the "real" fabric boards.
I love your space and especially how you've organized your fabrics! You did an amazing job!
I love your studio. It makes me want to come in and create!The mini bolts are adorable!
I don't think I could bring myself to leave that room! How long did it take to fold all of that fabric girl!? I think my poor sewing room could use a bulldozing!
Congrats on yr new studio!!! It's any quilter's dream....mine for sure ;).
it's really beautiful and well organized. I'm sooo jealous!!
Happy sewing! xoxo
Yes, Jennifer, tell us what kind of board you used for the mini bolts. Very cute way to display your fabric. Mine is such a mess! Congrats on the new sewing space.
LOVE IT~! I want to know what board you used also. Hopefully you will be joining in our Block Party to use up some of those gorgeous prints~!
What a nice room. I love the look of all the bolts of fabric all lined up like that. Wow!
Wow, your new studio is gorgeous! It looks so fresh and clean. I love how you organized your fabrics by color and to look like mini bolts! I keep mine in stacks because of the size of my shelves. Love the different work stations you have too, especially Chaney's corner. How fun to spend the day in this fabulous studio!
Aww, your studio is just perfect! And yes, I love your mini bolts very much! With a clean and inspirational space I bet your creative juices are a flowing!! Enjoy!!
You have a ton of fabric! Your studio is great.
wow, it's brilliant!! i love the play area idea.
Beautiful! *Almost* makes me want to move out of the city to a larger home so I can have a studio!!
I can't believe how much fabric you have, lucky lucky you. I wish I had a Fabric Shop near me, apparently my closest is over 2 hours away, and I still haven't been there, need to go because I don't have any stash!!!
~lovely collection there.
I'd love to have a cuppa with you~if we were close. happy tuesday~
I would so be there for food, drinks and fabric love!!! Wow, your studio is gorgeous and so is your stash.
What boards did you use for the mini-bolts? They look great!
love it! I love how your fabric is so accessible. i am working on that for my own stash. :)
Fabulous! I'm working on my space and I hope it's just half as nice as yours!
Ok now I want to put my fabric on mini bolts too. I am curious which ones you picked. Also great shelving for them. Did you pock it up some where?
we are all obviously drooling over your fabric and studio ... wow!
i would love to come hang out and talk fabric!
those mini bolts are to die for.
My first visit to your blog and I get to drool over your studio! What a great space and a great stash!
I'd love to stop by and chat about fabric over a cuppa! Congrats on getting so organized and making it beautiful as well!
Your sewing room is amazing. I had never thought of using the mini bolts. It looks like you have your own little quilt shop there. I anticipate many, many gorgeous things being created in that room!
And the next time I visit my brother in Dallas, I'm coming over for food and wine, okay?
Your room looks great! :) I'm so jealous of your fabric stash!
Oh, how fun! It was neat to see how you have everything arranged and organized! The mini bolts are adorable and if I lived closer, I'd love to come over and talk fabric! :) ~Jessica
WOW that is amazing. You lucky girl.
Visiting here from Nashville TN, and I love your new studio. What a lovely place to be creative in!!
Jennifer, your new studio is lovely. I think it is wonderful that your daughter has her own little spot in the corner. Happy sewing and crafting to both of you!
and it looks wonderful Jennifer..every wee corner..and could not help notice your wee waiting area for little people..lol divine
consider me officially jealous! Looks great, can't wait to see what comes out of it considering all the fantastic stuff you've made before you had it!
oh looks so lovely!! Great idea about your design wall... i have a space im wondering if i should put one up... your stash is to die for.. if that was my house... i wouldnt leave that room... hope you feel better soon xx
Oh wow! what a dream it would be to have a studio like that!
I adore your quilting space! What I wouldn't give to have one of my own! Right now, my quilt space is a VERY small coat closet that I stash all of my supplies in haha.
