My NYC sewing studio after 1 year | Styles InSeams sewing room tour

[@iLoveLeatherNYC]

Thank you for taking us on a look around. I agree with your method and mindset of wanting to find something at a glance. I do use plastic bags, but clear plastic folders with string ties are my go-to (and they sized to fit inside of file cabinets!)

[@dianecrews6130]

Thank you so much for sharing your absolutely awesome sewing room. And I'm so glad that you kept it real

[@sophiemaetz4798]

Absolutely beautiful! I love your sewing studio! Très joli et inspirant!

[@StylesInSeams]

Thank you!! :)

[@Chi9ja]

You don't need to sell your plant, you can just chop it back, there are tons of youtube videos on it. Then you can use the chopped pieces as decor for other parts of your home. Very lovely studio

[@StylesInSeams]

Good point! I'll definitely try to re-root some chopped pieces. It's currently in the sunniest spot of my apartment and I don't think it will survive elsewhere. But I could turn a huge profit on the big plant and buy more plants 🪴 or fabric!

[@lckaren]

Loved Ur room and video❤Since Ur closet is deep I would add a shelf over the other shelf and and a shower curtain rod and hang Ur unfinished patterns on the flat wooden pants/slacks hangers. And get hooks to hand the chairs in the closet. Hope this helps😊

[@teriacoleman]

Love your sewing space!! Yay for tall sewist! I am 5’10.5. I have to height adjust everything ❤️❤️.

[@StylesInSeams]

Yay tall sewist! I feel like I spend half of my life adding inches to sewing patterns lol

[@Happybidr]

Yay for 3 tall sewists. I’m 6’0” and I do a lot of quilting and cutting these days. So I bought a Martelli table that goes up and down, is covered with a cutting mat and has a long well where long rulers go, and my back no longer bothers me! It’s very pricey so in hindsight if I’d seen what you created I might have done that instead and spent that money on something else.

[@teriacoleman]

@@StylesInSeams Seriously 🤣🤣

[@teriacoleman]

@@Happybidr I had to make my sewing room ergonomic after having back and neck pain. I just finished making a height adjusting table. It is 72 x 30 and raises high enough for me to cut and trace patterns. I love it sooo much. I purchased a table top and legs separately. It took some patience to sand it and make the table top smooth but it was worth it because now I can use it for years to come. I have to remember the exact price but I think the total price was around $300 or less. No matter how we get our tables weather it be pricy or not the best thing is that we have less pain. As a tall sewist everything has to be customized to our height. Sorry for the long response lol.

[@Happybidr]

I love your space. I’m obsessed with that shirt you’re wearing! The colors, the pattern! You are so pretty! KZbin knows I’m a sucker for sewing room tours and I’m glad I’ve now found a new channel to subscribe to.

[@chunnytv1509]

Thank you for sharing your beautiful space. Don’t you have noise complaints? My daughter is a fashion design student. Her downstairs neighbor complained a lot. Can u share the tips which apartment to choose?

[@StylesInSeams]

My sewing machine isn't super loud + it's on the outside corner of the building. NYC is way louder outside! 😅

[@nozztozz]

Love your studio! So peaceful. Btw where did you get the color wheel?

[@StylesInSeams]

Thanks! I got the color wheel from Amazon. Just added a link to my shop: www.amazon.com/shop/stylesinseams/

[@ACBajet]

Feeling more inspired!!! Thanks for sharing your beautiful space!!!

[@stephanielangston3875]

Enjoyed your sewing room tour, I am renovating my room now. Your big cutting table would accommodate the three piece Olfa mat, it is 72" x 35". I have one that I leave set up on my drafting table. I have loved it.

[@StylesInSeams]

I will check that out!!!

[@blufaerie]

I love your space! Is the top you’re wearing your own design?

[@StylesInSeams]

Thanks, I did sew it! It's a mashup of the Anthea blouse pattern and the Patina blouse pattern.

[@bitrudder3792]

For projects in process, anything with a wide and shallow shape works well: certain Ikea drawer units, (Alex-like, but not the narrow ones), or stacking modular plastic boxes (Container Store, ka-ching).

[@mad14kt]

😍😍😍😍

[@aseretstudio1724]

Thank you for sharing! Beautiful sewing/work space studio!

[@StylesInSeams]

Thanks for watching. Happy you enjoyed!

[@mayravelez9421]

I Love your sense of style ❤❤Happy 🧵 Sewing…Room looks great Lotta natural light

[@petmomful2260]

LOVELY room. I have a question. I have been sewing many years and I make quilts and have made garments. But where do you learn to make your own patterns or alter patterns to fit? I have not seen any classes like this around me.

[@StylesInSeams]

Thank you! I've actually created some classes that are perfect for you! In my 5-part sewing course on Skillshare there is a class on sewing with commercial patterns, one on pattern hacking, and another specifically on altering clothes to fit. You can sign up for a free month and watch the classes with this link: skl.sh/stylesinseams

[@petmomful2260]

@@StylesInSeams Oh goodness, thanks for letting me know. I will see if I can afford that and check it out. I would love to be able to make myself, and my little granddaughter, some well fitted garments.

[@ninad5692]

That is an absolutely lovely and charming space 😊

[@ShutokaJefferson]

Thanks for sharing your space. I love seeing where people create.

[@ellenrayani7571]

Thanks for sharing your studio!

[@StylesInSeams]

My pleasure!

[@StylesInSeams]

No, seriously - how should I store the patterns that I've cut before I'm ready to use them?!? Lemme know your suggestions ++ your favorite element in my sewing room.

[@mountain1666]

I store my inwork patterns by clipping in them on pants hangers from IKEA. Works great and you could hang them in the wardrobe. Love you space and the light!

[@StylesInSeams]

@@mountain1666 Oh that's brilliant! I'll get some pants hangers and try to clear a path in my closet lol Thank you!

[@carrier.9227]

Amazon sells single clip hanger things too - good for storing cut patterns you aren't folding or rolling to store away yet

[@Veronensis]

I like to store my in progress projects either on a clothing rack, or on hooks. I have pattern clips so I can hang up the pattern, paper gift bags to put small pieces of the garment in (like half constructed collars and the like) and clothes hangers for the half finished garment. that way, I can hang all the components of my in progress projects together

[@Mariadiaz77444]

Store in ziplock bags write description and maybe even start date

[@gelyna_fashionfood]

Lovely space ❤

[@hafsafossie7074]

I love your sewing studio it looks very cozy❤❤❤❤

[@elizabethcanales7170]

Love your vibe! Awesome sewing space.❤

[@bitrudder3792]

Serenity and peace, 👏🏻❤️!

[@beatrizfimbres3778]

Love, love your sewing/office!

[@kimpham7846]

Wow. Your sewing room is organized!

[@mcanultymichelle]

Honey you are to adorable looking 👍😊. If you ever want to save on money?or If you need to,give up that bedroom $$and look in to the Japanese way of sleeping on a roll up futon.It’s hard to go back to a regular bed once you get used to it and you can roll it up and out of the way🤷‍♀️

[@StylesInSeams]

I will keep that in mind!

[@davederrick9431]

Very nice studio tour. My ears picked when I heard you mention the Readers Digest Guide to Sewing, I purchased my copy 45 years ago an still use it today. It is a bit worst for these days 😊.

[@lynnleipold2617]

I’ve had mine about that long too!

[@angelaofner1965]

You made me realize I need to buy plants for my sewing room. Great video! Love your cat.

[@StylesInSeams]

I hope you have some happy new plants by now!

[@christycoulsey9970]

Thank you for sharing. I got lots of inspiration from this video.

[@StylesInSeams]

I'm so glad it was helpful!

[@sarahjocker5059]

Hello Robyn I love your sewing room just full of light amazing view. I will be in your sewing room 24hours I will go for a walk and food shopping and the rest in your amazing sewing studio well done you XXXXX

[@bethchristian6819]

Love that blouse can you share the fabric and pattern please

[@StylesInSeams]

The fabric is ankara from a local shop. The pattern is the Anthea blouse by Anna Allen merged with the neckline and collar of the Friday Pattern Co Patina blouse.

[@pollyrees826]

I love your blouse

[@denisehodges6257]

I pin cut patterns to hangers with paper on them that you get from the cleaners.

[@StylesInSeams]

ooh that's an interesting idea! and definitely a problem I still have not solved more than one year later.

[@ariel393939]

You are so blessed to have inherited your grandmother's tapestries, they are beautiful. I'm not big into peg boards, but I love yours, the wood and spacing, it's different than the norms. The cutting board table I really like how you put it together. Also all the natural light and plants. Much success to you.

[@ElizabethChambers-uo1sh]

Very creative and calm. I've been considering a revamp of my space and you've given me some great ideas!😊

[@nikkilim9991]

I have been getting more and more into sewing, and I am obsessed with sewing studio tours. Thank you for sharing your beautiful space. I love that you kept it real, and I definitely understand your thought process! I too have plants throughout my own studio! It's definitely at the point where I need to sell some.

[@StylesInSeams]

Oh, I've definitely bought and propogated more plants since I made this video. I have a problem lol

[@Elaine-rp7el]

I think you are very organized.

[@Lina-li1ho]

The workshop is just super
