Every quilter, needs a place to sew.  This can be as elaborate as a room to call your own or it can be as simple as your dining room table. Whatever you have it’s yours.  The big key is to be organized, this can be achieved by being creative with your storage options. One thing you can do is purchase some sweater sized bins in which to store your fabric catorized by color, a stackable drawer system works great as well for this.  Your tools are next on the organization list, for this I’m using a rolling drawer system which is working great, I can move it wherever I am in the room,whether at the cutting table or at the sewing machine, it’s alway right where I need it.

Take a look at the suggestions offered in this video I found on YouTube.  Please send me your sewing room suggestions and I”ll post them here.

Happy Quilting!
