In certain stages of the sewing process you'll need more or less space, so often times these solutions won't have to be permentant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"text-transform:capitalize\">Invest in storage solutions<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Investing in storage solutions will help you keep your sewing supplies organized and easily accessible. Consider using baskets, bins, or drawers to store your fabric, thread, needles, and other small items. You can also use shelves or racks to keep your patterns, books, and other supplies organized. <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" data-src=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/shutterstock_2061951689-500x333.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-75684 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/shutterstock_2061951689-500x333.jpg 500w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/shutterstock_2061951689-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/shutterstock_2061951689-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/shutterstock_2061951689-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/shutterstock_2061951689-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/shutterstock_2061951689-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/shutterstock_2061951689-250x167.jpg 250w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 500px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 500\/333;\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" src=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/shutterstock_2061951689-500x333.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-75684\" srcset=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/shutterstock_2061951689-500x333.jpg 500w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/shutterstock_2061951689-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/shutterstock_2061951689-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/shutterstock_2061951689-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/shutterstock_2061951689-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/shutterstock_2061951689-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/shutterstock_2061951689-250x167.jpg 250w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Vertical space is often underutilized in sewing rooms, but it's a great way to maximize your storage options.

Be sure to follow the manufacturer's guidelines for cleaning and maintenance, and consider using a cover to protect your machine when it's not in use. Nothing is more harmful to your productivity than having a machine break down mid-project, or even have one working less than perfectly.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"330\" data-src=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/shutterstock_594116018-500x330.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-75686 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/shutterstock_594116018-500x330.jpg 500w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/shutterstock_594116018-300x198.jpg 300w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/shutterstock_594116018-768x506.jpg 768w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/shutterstock_594116018-1536x1013.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/shutterstock_594116018-2048x1350.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/shutterstock_594116018-150x99.jpg 150w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/shutterstock_594116018-250x165.jpg 250w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 500px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 500\/330;\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"330\" src=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/shutterstock_594116018-500x330.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-75686\" srcset=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/shutterstock_594116018-500x330.jpg 500w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/shutterstock_594116018-300x198.jpg 300w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/shutterstock_594116018-768x506.jpg 768w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/shutterstock_594116018-1536x1013.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/shutterstock_594116018-2048x1350.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/shutterstock_594116018-150x99.jpg 150w, https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/shutterstock_594116018-250x165.jpg 250w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>You can take your machine to a dealer shop or intependant professional for a complete deep clean and check-up, or you can follow this tutorial on <a href=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/pamper-sewing-machine-cleaning-tutorial\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/pamper-sewing-machine-cleaning-tutorial\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">how to clean your sewing machine<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-wp-embed is-provider-so-sew-easy wp-block-embed-so-sew-easy\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"j8kf5M3G1Q\"><a href=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/pamper-sewing-machine-cleaning-tutorial\/\">Pamper Your Sewing Machine: a Cleaning Tutorial<\/a><\/blockquote><iframe class=\"wp-embedded-content lazyload\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; clip: rect(1px, 1px, 1px, 1px);\" title=\"&#8220;Pamper Your Sewing Machine: a Cleaning Tutorial&#8221; &#8212; So Sew Easy\" data-src=\"https:\/\/so-sew-easy.com\/pamper-sewing-machine-cleaning-tutorial\/embed\/#?secret=DRBi92ceVJ#?secret=j8kf5M3G1Q\" data-secret=\"j8kf5M3G1Q\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-load-mode=\"1\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"text-transform:capitalize\">Create a designated area for sewing projects<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Set aside an area for your current sewing projects and keep all the supplies you need for that project within easy reach.
