Wow. When we launched our My Modern Sewing Space competition, we wanted a glimpse into your home sewing spaces. Nearly 100,000 views and hundreds of entries from all over the world later, it's been a truly heart-warming reminder of what makes The Modern Sewing Co. (and wider!) sewing community so special.
From beautifully purpose-built studios of dreams to dedicated craft corners to a well-used corner of the kitchen table, your home sewing spaces come in every shape and size imaginable. It's not about the square footage, but the creativity. It's so lovely the we’re all united by the love of hand made, slow fashion. Onto the competition winner...
We knew we wouldn’t be able to chose, so we randomly selected a winner. huge congratulations to Karen C., who has won The Art of Dress Making Workshop.
We know we're not the only ones who have enjoyed seeing fellow sewers' spaces all across the world. So, as an extra thank you for taking part, we've randomly chosen three runners up to receive a The Modern Sewing Co. gift card each, too. Surprise!

We had 100+ entries, and wish we could share them all. So, here's a small roundup of some more of your fellow sewists' lovely spaces. We hope they bring you as much joy as they've brought us, here in our East London studio you know so well from our own photos.
