That is absolutely perfect!!!!! WTG I just got a new fridge for my kitchen so had the delivery men take the very old one (no water or ice) down 2 flights of steps and get rid of it from my sewing room. They would only take one tho ( contracts and bla bla) so my husband and I got impatient and decided we would move the now older one in the kitchen to my sewing room. Gee it was a heck of a job! We tugged pulled strained and will probably not be able to move tomorrow but we wanted that thing done right then! Well it's here in my sewing room complete with water and ice and it is clean fresh and white. I am pinching myself that I am so fortunate to have all of this!!! I don't deserve it. God is Good! I wish everyone to be this happy :)

Love your storage unit, especially the fact that it closes up!!
I found something almost similar at my doctor's office. They were in the process of converting their patient files to electronic form and no longer needed the bookcases/cabinets that held the paper version. When I saw it empty, I knew right away what I'd do with it. A little negotiation, for a decent but not bargain price, and it came home with me. I use an old sheet to cover the front when I'm not working in my sewing room. It's wonderful!
So, everyone, watch your doctor's office. You may find something similar! :-)

I wasn't into quilting the first time around but I did a little sewing so I only knew of one fabric store. I am so glad my quilting instructor lead me to this one, its the best!

Great cabinet and wonderful fabrics.
In 2005-2007 I visited my DD and SIL (and especially the grandkids) stationed in Korea . They had great fabrics very reasonably priced and great heavy quality. I have not really seen anything here with the same quality; I wish I had bought more but wasn't really into quilting then.
