Maybe we ought to have a post that shows pictures of our sewing studio! Mine isn't to bad at the moment. I'm trying to finish a queen size quilt I started in 2014 for my mum. It was a mystery quilt I offered at my shoppe. I'm not getting any younger and neither is she (my mom will turn 80 this December) so it's best I get it finished! Focus baby, that's all just focus ..... SQUIRREL!!!! I have a lot of squirrels in my life!

Here's my "studio".



As can be seen, I do not have much room. Note the pile of mending/fixing to the right of the two backets.

Most of my fabrics are in clear tubs (about 12" x 16" x about 14" deep. I grouped scraps and pieces together by color. I like the card idea, but with about 40 tubs, there is no way. When I get through sorting what I brought in the house to work with, over the last year, I must move it back out to my sewing house. My biggest problem is all the "STUFF" that can be used for crafting, card making and sewing. I have these in shoebox tubs....lots of them. I also paint, among other things.

I have a room that is my "project" room where all crafting supplies, fabric, etc are stored. I also have a large work table in there and that is where everything BUT sewing happens. I do my sewing in the utility room where the floor is vinyl and I'm close to the ironing board.
I don't want to be sewing in the project room and have to try to keep up thread, straight pins and all that other sewing debris out of the carpet.

I'm a new Sister. This is my first post. Love reading all your post. Just trying to learn how to get around the site.
I'm a sewer with a messy sewing room. I love it I'm not alone. I live in north central Washington on a working cattle
ranch that also grows apples.
thank you for the welcome cards.
