    My sewing space is a corner of our family room. My stash is stored downstairs in a spare bedroom.

    I found this little "ironing station" at our local Pamida store, on sale. It has been very useful! I used to press my blocks on an ironing pad that shared space on my cutting table, to the right in the picture. This is much better, even though the area for pressing is small.

    I used to have some sewing stuff in the closet to the left, which is mostly a food pantry. At the hardware store, I found this hanging shoe caddy, which is much better. I am an "out of sight, out of mind" person, so the see-through pockets are perfect.

    Oh, I wish I could find something like this! We keep our ironing board up all the time to iron shirts and this would look so much better!
