    Thank you...now it's just about getting everything more organized. I've never had everything all in one room before.

    Me too! Since I enjoy a variety of crafts like you, I turned my cabinets back to back. At the end of the units I have project totes stacked and bulky fleece in jumbo totes with folds on top so I can see all the colors when I take the lids off. Since my area has angled walls, I put the batting on the wall beside two of the units to use otherwise dead space. On a small angle wall near the door I hung pegboard for my stencils, rulers, cutter, and things with holes can hang.

    I have more ideas if you need to create more space without parting with anything (now that you have your shelves full). Just let me know. Enjoy your new room!

    I was planning on putting some storage under tables too...but I'm waiting until I get situated a little better. I need to get working on getting some quilts out. I need to do up some scrappy quilts and use a bunch of them up. I have too many and could be using the storage for my yard cuts.

    Your room looks amazing...how cool to have everything organised and just where you need it. Think of all the quilts you can create. Bet you had fabric you had totally forgotton about (ask how I know!). Anyway, thanks for sharing your progress, it's been fun.

    Gosh Wolph, too bad you aren't closer. You could have lots of fun at my place, fondle to your little ol hearts content. But with one stipulation. You fold and organize as you go.. :D :D :D

    First mistake is trying to fit it all in one room! Each hobby deserves its own room. Right now I have 3 craft rooms and a computer room! It is a good thing I live alone!!! :twisted:
