    Default Hope you're impressed izy!! Sewing room sorted!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    A few weeks ago my wonderful QB friend Izy spent 3 days sorting my mountain of fabrics into order!! I have now done the rest of the room!!!!!!!!!! I took lots of magazines to my sewing group to be recycled, sold some surplus books/notions etc and have now reorganised the rest!!! Why did it take me so many years to realise heavy boxes need to be on lower shelves??DUH!!!!! So here are some pics!! My room is 9'x7'(we don't do large in the UK!!!) I never thought I could be so organised!!! Thanks Izy!!! You are an inspiration!!!!!

    Friends are wondeful-especially those who just give us a little nudge and stay by our side! Your sewing area looks great! Doesn't it feel good to walk in the room and be able to find the things you need instead of hunting for them? Enjoy!

    WOW Hilary, it doesn't look like the same room! You have worked SO much harder than I did, I had the easy bit playing with fabrics!

    I am so proud of you...especially as you have been so debilitated with a painful back condition for a few weeks too so I know this wasn't easy for you!

    AND I spy some crumb blocks on your sewing table, so look forward to seeing more of those soon!

    Have to laugh at your wall plaque...it's SO NOT TRUE!!!!!
