You inspired me to organize my sewing/ guest bedroom. Worked all day "with what I have" and I am ready to get sewing again. Thanks for the reminder to appreciate what you have. 🙏
I have a small sewing space as well. It is actually a small bedroom that I use as my computer desk space, makeup/spa space, and sewing table. I am so grateful to have this area. I start many days here in mediation and prayer before I take on the day. I am a new subscriber and have already enjoyed watching 3 of your videos this evening.
I know about sewing in small spaces, even though sewing things are organized I still felt that my bedroom was always cluttered. I love how you have all of your notions separated and in totes.
Thank you so much for this! I have a very small sewing space. My desk is shared with our homeschool room. I have everything in my sewing bags after I’m done due to not having space, which causes me to not want to sew as much. I just love this idea so much. The peg board is such a great idea. I also love writing fabric only on the scissors cause my kids and husband always want to use them also. Thank you so much ❤️
You are so welcome! I totally understand the frustration of a small sewing space, so just make it inviting and where it works for you. Thanks for watching!
Hi Martika - I came across your channel today and I'm so glad. Attitude is definitely the key and yours is praise worthy. Thank you for sharing. I'm new to sewing and have subscribed, keep up the great work! 🌿🌻
Thank you so much I love your personality. Thanks so much for sharing your small. I'm also dealing with a tiny space . You have really great ideas. I look forward to you doing more sew alongside. Please if you can could you tell me how do you like your sewing machine. I've had owned a cheap brother sewing machine . It a good machine...just could never figure out how to make button holes...You are greatly appreciated 🙂
@@martikajmakes Thank you so much for your Response, please do not change I really love your spirit!! I also have no sewing space! I appreciate you expressing that!! Thank you again, your one of My favorite people ❤
Hello and glad to hear you're feeling better. Thank you for The Giant Inch." I printed it out and will be laminating it. I have a spare/craft room, but moved to our old computer table. Now I can listen to the shows my husband is watching and talk to him.
Thank you so much! I don’t mind it too much until my husband has to go to bed since he gets up so early. It can be a little challenging at times when I’m working on something, but we make it work.
I have a small sewing space in my bedroom. I make it work for me. I have three Sterilite cabinets with drawers. I also have three plastic containers that have slots to keep my threads. I am content with my sewing space.
Glad you're feeling better. Thanks for this video. I procrastinate and struggle to keep things organized. Much of what you've shared, I have some portion of it in place but I'm not consistent with KEEPING it organized. When it gets to out of wack, it steals my time to get back in my space to sew.... Enough already...thamks🥰
You are welcome! Things can easily get out of wack in small spaces. I just try and take out what I need and put it back in place when I’m done. This helps me keep things from building up.
Yes!!!!! i love that giant inch print. I need to something similar. I get so confused with measuring markings too. That's part of the reason why I haven't started with patterns yet. But I plan to start working with patterns real soon. I too have a glass container I keep my smaller items in like seam ripper, hem gauge, etc... got mine from the local Goodwill Store. Thanks for this video and sharing.
I also have a small sewing space the same as u in a corner of my bedroom.....hubs and I work around it esp when he is ready for bed but we make it work....i love my space its what I have for now so I am embracing it.......and dreaming of the sewing room in the near future *wink* lol....your space is nice and organized....i love to see it....would mint having a giant inch like that though...
Thank you so much! Making it work is definitely what we have to do until we get that dream room...LOL! Just Google "The Giant Inch" and you'll get several options that you can print out.
Martika! I love your little bins with bias tape, buttons, etc! I have a 3 drawer organizer for my sewing nic nacs too! I also use a table box for my smaller items, like needles, zipper feet, etc. The one I have is a 3-drawer version. It folds out and is really convenient, as well as a space saver. The handle atop the tackle box is really convenient as well.
I love your small space and your positive attitude towards using and making the best of what you have and being grateful for it. I am wondering where you cut out your fabric? I have been blessed to have always had a sewing room in our homes over the years and its something that I appreciate. Great video thankyou Martika, from Saleena
I actually have a high bed, so I place my cutting boards on my bed or I take them to my dining room table to cut. I thought about getting a foldable cutting table, but I’ll have my own sewing room in the near future. Thank you so much!
Well, you really didn't show us your sewing space. You just showed a bunch of plastic bins you store stuff in. A sewing space includes walls, windows, the theme, an idea of the flow of the room, and the machines.
Just now seeing this. Thanks for posting this encouraging video.
@@lynnh5587 You are most welcome! Thank you for watching!
I love the peg board idea especially! Also, i threaten my family about my fabric scissors 😊
It's a common battle! LOL! Thank you!

That's so awesome!!! Congratulations!
I have a sewing cupboard 😂 and work on the dining table when it is free, i love your space! 💖
It works! We use what we got! LOL! Thank you!
Love this video. Like you said, make the most of your sewing space big or small.

It’s sounds like you definitely make the MOST out of your small space. Love it! Thank you so much for watching and subscribing!

Yes. It keeps them concealed and out of view.
Thanks martika, you are very organized and I enjoyed your video
So sorry for the delay! Thank you!

Aaaawww...Thank you so much and thank yo for subscribing!!!
You could use longer pegboard hooks to go through both sides of the basket so that it sits upright.
Thanks for the tip!

I absolutely LOVE my machine. Making buttonholes on it is amazingly easy also. The manual is very detailed and step by step.

Hi Martika! Thanks for the heads up on these cute peg boards. Love your sewing space, neat and organized!
Hi Heather! Thank you! These peg boards are definitely a win win!
Great ideas!
Also, if you organize your thread like an artists color wheel you can see the color pallet distinctly at a glance.
Happy Creating!
Great idea! Thank you and thanks for watching!

It’s definitely a good thing to be content with what you have. You’re still able to create!

All sewing spaces are our happy spaces… OURS! We’re all lucky 🤗🤗🤗
True!
I have a huge sewing room, but I currently do not have time to sew :(
Just do what you can when you can. Each step gets you closer to finishing your project. :)
Well, you really didn't show us your sewing space. You just showed a bunch of plastic bins you store stuff in. A sewing space includes walls, windows, the theme, an idea of the flow of the room, and the machines.
@@kendal4452 You obviously didn’t read the title.
@@martikajmakes But everyone has to put their stuff somewhere, mostly it's in plastic bins. I mean where else would you put the stuff?
