HERE’S WHAT SEWING WORLD MAGAZINE HAS TO SAY ABOUT DREAM SEWING SPACES:
“Creating the perfect sewing space requires careful thought and this great title bursts with ideas for practical and creative ideas ranging from a tiny corner to a full-size workroom. Every aspect is covered, including storage solutions, workspace, equipment, lighting, family matters, and financial considerations. Following an initial questionnaire to help readers establish their specific needs this accomodates the inevitable collection of fabric, threads, haberdashery, machines, and other sewing paraphernalia that is essential to our sewing happiness. The original version of this book was published in 1996 and whilst tastes and styles in home decor change, the practical issues still apply and this new edition has been updated to include new organizations tools, ergonomic techniques, and a focus on ‘green’ living.”
