I thought I’ll put this here on the blog too. This was my insta story a couple of weeks ago.
I love looking at sewing spaces and I would love to share a little more of mine, so you’ll feel like you’ve been here sewing with me at some point.
Besides, it always nice to look back at all the setup I used to sew in.
Sewing Space 2011
Just look at this one – when I first learned how to quilt. That table was just beside our bed.
I think that is when the name The Little Mushroom Cap came from. I was just sewing in a small cute little space under the roof of a mushroom cap. Well it felt like that.
I loved it.
There are also many times when we don’t dine on the table because there’s fabrics and sewing machine on the dining table.
One quilter’s life is that one whole family’s life. Right?
My current space – 2019
I recently moved the furniture back into the space when I was feeling most productive. I would say, I love the setup but I haven’t yet still manage to maximise the sewing potential. You see, I am most productive in the wee early morning around 4-5am.
My kids are not up at the time, thankfully. I love them, but I really do think some quiet time is necessary.
In the early morning, I could have all the peaceful me time praying, meditating, blogging and sewing.
Do you have a morning routine?
My Morning Routine is a game changer. I love it so much. I read about it from this book and has never looked back.
However, since the current space is shared with my kid’s bed, I haven’t been able to sew much during my mornings. But, things have been progressing with this space and I am getting back more sewing mojo, even if I have to sew after cooking dinner just before bed time.
Whatever it is, I am so grateful.
Grateful for the space. Grateful for the joy sewing has brought to my life.
Well, I hope you enjoy this short insta-story video.
If haven’t followed me on instagram, you can find me at amira_littlemushroomcap. I wish to do more insta stories and videos in the future, but it does require more time just uploading and editing. Hope I’ll get more efficient at that.
I promise, I’ll try and do along video tour of the space.
If you are interested in some of the organization I have in there (besides all the mess too) – I have a post HERE that shares some those.

You can buy a 15 yard bolt of Bella Solid from Green Fairy quilts for $85 which includes shipping. Just thought I’d let you know. I think it’s a great price and I do like to have plenty of some basics!
Try command hooks. They work well on smooth surfaces. They are a bit pricy but should work for you on a concrete surface.
What Carolyn said – Command Hooks. Just make sure to wipe down the wall first with rubbing alcohol and let it dry. The “stickum” will stick and hold better.
If you can’t get them in Malaysia, try on the Internet or let me know and I’ll send you some.
