The Sanctuary Bundle

The Smart Sofa Station is a beautiful, multi-pocket organiser that drapes over your armchair and keeps everything exactly where you need it.

With a quilted base, clever pocket options, and magnetic attachments, it transforms messy sofa-crafting into a calm, organised experience.

You’ll customise the pockets to suit your craft — hand quilting, EPP, embroidery, crochet and more — then enjoy the ease of a boxed pincushion, needle minder, hidden needle keeper, and tidy storage for scissors, notions, bobbins and clips. When you’re finished, simply fold it up and tuck everything away.

Included in this pattern:
• 20pg PDF Pattern
• Step-by-step diagram instructions
• Sizing (flat): 9½” (W) x 22” (L)
• Masterclass Series: 24 Video Lessons (Sew with Ali)

The Smart Sofa Station Add-On Pack expands your station into a fully customisable, modular storage system — giving every tool, notion, and thread tail a thoughtful place to live.

This set of four interchangeable add-ons magnetically clips or rests onto your Smart Sofa Station, allowing you to tailor your setup to the way you craft.

From secure pin storage and tiny notion containment to thread-catching and extra tool space, each piece is designed to keep your sofa sewing calm, tidy, and beautifully organised.

You’ll mix and match these items as needed — snapping them on for hand quilting, embroidery, EPP, or crochet, then swapping them out when your project changes. When you’re finished, simply unclip, fold, and tuck everything away.

Together, these add-ons transform your Smart Sofa Station from an organiser into a complete, flexible crafting companion — functional, elegant, and a joy to use.

Included in this Add-On Pack:

• The PinPod (6pg PDF Pattern): Magnetic pincushion for secure, drop-free pin storage
• The Tiny Tub (7pg PDF Pattern): Mini container for clips, bobbins, buttons, and small notions
• The Thread Nest (9pg PDF Pattern): Thread-catching bin for snips, scraps, and trimmings
• The Large Cargo Bay (10 pg PDF Pattern): Roomy interchangeable pouch for larger tools and project supplies

The Sewing Space Station is a compact, portable organiser designed for sewists who don’t have a permanent sewing room — or who sew at the dining table, travel to classes, or set up wherever life allows.

With pockets, pouches, storage bays and the sweetest detachable PinPod, it keeps every tool, ruler and notion in one beautifully organised place so you can start sewing instantly.

The front tool panel keeps your essentials right at hand, while the spacious internal pockets store fabric, rulers, patterns, and WIPs without clutter. Swap and change the detachable “cargo bay” pouches to suit your current project, and let the weighted PinPod travel with you around the mat as you sew.

When you’re done, simply fold it up, tie it closed, and pack the whole station away — ready to open again with zero setup and no lost tools.

Included in this pattern:
• 28pg PDF Pattern
• Detachable Cargo Bay pouch
• PinPod boxed pin cushion
• Step-by-step diagram instructions
• Video tutorial series (Sew with Ali)

“My favourite sewing item!”
“I just want to share my love for the Sewing Space Station! When I made it I didn’t know that it would be my favourite item in the sewing place.

I just love it and highly recommend you all to make it!!”
