Carol, what an inovative idea to use the white duct tape in the manner you did. How clever. It looks very nice and I would assume is very functional.
This site is going to get better and better isn't it? :-D :-D |

Since I'm not concerned about light in my sewing room (it's in the dungeon of my basement - no light penetrates!!) I store all my fabric in open "crates." They are the adjustable vinyl sided "boxes" that can be built to any height/width, etc. I use my 6" wide ruler to fold my fabric. It's just like using the cardboard bolts at the fabric stores. But after I fold it, I pull out my ruler and then fold them in half the other way. Two rows fit perfectly in each shelf. I also just love looking at my wall of color.
One other idea I use is under the bed shoe storage containers. Got them at Hancock Fabric. They hold "tons" of fabric! Wall of Fabric [ATTACH=CONFIG]108487[/ATTACH] |
That's wonderful! I love to get everyone's ideas!

Fabulous idea, Michael! Sew (mis-use intended) obvious, but none of us had thought of it, or at least not acted on it.
As I have neither a dedicated room nor an Ikea nearby, I'm always looking for inexpensive solutions to my space-eating hobby! Thanks so much for suggesting it, and for getting it going! I'm hopping over there right now! |

I have a small room that is my sewing room.. I have a small 12x20 building that was my beauty shop /guest house that I converted into my quilting studio/ sewing/ hide-a-away from the world. With my laptop PC I can go any where and stay in touch. Sending more pic of storage ideas.

It's a great idea. I, for one, only having a sewing 'space' but i am always thinking of ways to make it more efficient and easier to work in.
