Blonde moment! I mean we should declare a 'show us your sewing room and we'll show you ours!' Month here on the forum:0)Make sense now? Pick a month...warmer month hopefully and everyone take pics of their sewing spaces/rooms and post them here for all to see and spark ideas in storage...or better yet, sneakier ways to look like we have no sewing anythings-which would be soooo sad and then we'd all have....to go and buy more!:)How's that?!:)Skeat

OMGoodness! I never in a nmillion years thought this thread would be so popular! LOL!
Gail G ... Yes it does look like this most of the time. Certainly not when I am in the middle of a sewing project. But, I straighten and clean it between projects. I figure that this is my space, where I spend loads of time, why not have it nice? Did I mention that I have company much of the time? LOL!
I think what skeat was talking about is that she is a gardener. When the warm months are around she spends it out in her garden. I do too until the heat drives me into the house. Is that right hon?
quiltncrazy ... Did you have those pic developed yet? This is goign to be cool seeing your space. You two are funny here on this thread.
Thanks Sally Dolin ... I have friends that are neat and some that are not. It doesn't matter to me, I just love them for who they are, not what the house looks like. That is two different things altogether. Right? Don't worry, you will get on a sewing kick and go through yards of fabric all at once. I do.
k3n ... ((hugs)) Lol I do the same thing/

Red...you always make me smile:)I said for the pictures of sewing room to be in the warmer months for some of us have to move out of our sewing rooms due to it being too cold to play. I am presently in my dinning room! My sewing room is in the basement (my dungeon)during 9months of the year:)Others too do the same. So, if we do a 'showing' month of sewing rooms...I'd have to go down w/3 layers at least to get it organized if I go right now!LOL Hope that makes sense..if not...just ignore me:)LOL Skeat

Well, you can tell I didn't "clean" before I took these pictures!! :lol: But this is how it looks most of the time!! There's always some work-in-progress. Look pass the mess and see my organizing. The plastic bins under the table hold: scissors, rotary cutters, misc sewing supplies, patterns, large items. I also put my notes on the corkboard and threads are in the containers on top of the table. I'll take a picture, when it's clean, but that will be later. I have too many projects I'm trying to complete right now!! lol Hope this makes some of you feel better about your spaces! At least you know I stay busy!!
I use the top of this to store polar fleece, completed quilt tops, Timtex and large cone threads. I also cover the front with fabric, so it looks neater! smile

Under the cutting/sewing table storage. The top two drawers are narrow and the bottom two are deep.

I bought the stand at Targets...holds a lot of weight!! Makes it easier to 'find' stuff when it's not stacked on top of each other! hahahaha
