Setting Up Your Sewing Space: From Small Areas To Complete Workshops

By Myrna Giesbrecht

Book Overview

"The first book I've seen that tackles the subject, from tiny cubby holes to complete workshops for multiple sewers. The emphasis is on home sewing solutions, with sample floor plans, photos of rooms that work, and dozens of useful suggestions and guidelines for storage, lighting, table heights, and general efficiency."--Threads Magazine. "Charts and other types of illustrations are clear...a good place to start for folks who can't find a needle in a haystack...or simply on the floor."--Booklist.

Setting Up Your Sewing Space: From Small Areas To Complete Workshops

Product received and in good condition. Not a lot of colored pictures of room layouts, but good information for designing your space to sew.

One of the best!

This book is a masterpiece, even though it is written in a style that's a bit arcane. Giesbrecht really knows her business. She even teaches a course on this subject at QuiltUniversity.com!

Setting Up Your Sewing Space

Full of valuable information on sewing room design and layout, ergonomics, and project organization. Lots of helpful hints. I found it very useful.

I NEED the common sense stuff!

I am a beginning quilter and liked the "basic" information Myrna gave in this book. It is helping me sort through the piles of debris I have already accumulated. I can use all the help I can get.
