I agree with you on several things. Repurposing furniture to service you in the sewing room is awesome. I have a chest of drawers that was purchased unfinished and then finished when we expected our first child (1963). That chest of drawers was later passed on to one of the daughters and then made full circle and is back here in my sewing room. It now holds notions and supplies. My grandmother's armoire holds books, binders and some of my scrapbooking supplies. A kitchen cabinet which held dishes, etc. is now hanging in the sewing room loaded with stash. And that's not to leave out mason jars, cookie jars, etc that hold threads and other things. My room is certainly in "close quarters" like yours, only not as well organized. I, too, love the little Walmart 2 x 4 tables. I keep one to open up at the side of my machine to support my pieces as I quilt them. Congratulations on such an accomplishment. And congrats and good luck to your young quilter!

Those are all of my sewing patterns. I transfer all of my patterns from tissue paper over to brown kraft pattern to save them longer, but also to utilize all of the sizes in the pattern. Because the brown paper is more bulky, I put the patterns in those large envelopes. I photocopy the front and back of the original pattern and tape the copies onto the front and back of the large envelopes.
