Reorganized My quilting den
 
5 Attachment(s)
My quilt den was needing a good cleaning and some reorganization. I was inspired after reading Bonnie Hunters tutorial on fabric folding and modified to fit my units. Sorry I didn't take before pictures although it was somewhat organized before. I had purchased the storage units from ikea a few years back and all my fabric was in tubs that I could slide in and out. Ikea made shelves for the units, so I bought them and began to sort and re-fold every piece of fabric I owned. I donated unwanted and "what was I thinking" fabric. I love the order in my room now. I can now see what I have and it has been inspiring.

I can't imagine having this much space. I live in such a small house so this makes me very jealous. Thanks for sharing your pics.

What a great, great space! We are all coming to visit you in your den and play :)

Grammie Sharon 04-17-2013 03:01 AM

What's your address we will all bring lunch! This is a very nice space and it is so organized. Great job.

Diane007 04-17-2013 03:33 AM

nice digs :)

I am in awe of your space and how clean it is. I love looking at your wall of fabric I bet it is inspirational to be able to see all your fabric right there. Do you get to many ideas and not enough time to execute? That would be me.

MothrNatr 04-17-2013 03:59 AM

Not sure what I like best! I love the cutting table and I was thinking of the ironing board cover just yesterday! Nice area to quilt with a friend!

Your space is wonderful. I love how everyting has a place, and how organized your visible fabric is. The drawers for each fabric line is brilliant! I was leaning toward envious, then I saw the 2nd batch of photos which show your HQ 16, and I'm over the edge with envy. You have my total dream room. Enjoy!

Great space. Looks like a place where lots of quilts can be made. Looks like you have the whole basement. :)

What a wonderful studio and so organized.

Country1 04-17-2013 04:35 AM

WOW, I love it!... All that fabric and I've never seen any room sew ORGANIZED. Color me JEALOUS! I really like your large cutting table also. All that fabric and ALL that SPACE, WHOO HOO! Fabulous! Okay if I were to walk into a room like that and was told it was mine, after I come to from the shock and awe, I'd have to say "1st I LOVE YOU to DH." Then I have to make sure it was real, then 1. Is it really mine? Where's the bathroom? Then, all I would need is a small fridge for my insulin and water. 1 cabinet for food, so my glucose stays up. Once, again tell DH how much I love him!... Then advise him that if he needs anything just call or come an ask, otherwise I'd be here for a LONG time. Then 1 MAJOR problem would hit me, I wouldn't want to mess it up!...
So I think I'll have to leave this dream now and just stay here. But I am sew happy for you, you're one LUCKY QUILTER!...
Thanks for the fantasy!

Jackie Spencer 04-17-2013 04:56 AM

Ohmy gosh!! I love your sewing den! Everything is perfect! I would spend every minute in there.

amyjo 04-17-2013 05:08 AM

WOW!!! Just love your space. I hope you don't mind that I have saved all your pictures and am going to show DH and SIL so when they build my room on I can have that kind of a set up. LOVE IT ABSOLUTELY. Do you ever have to leave? I would need a bathroom behind one of those doors, which I am sure you do.

quiltntoday 04-17-2013 05:28 AM

What a wonderful, awe inspiring sewing studio you have! I love it so much. I really like your cutting island with all the storage underneath. Did your husband construct it for you?

OMG, are you kidding me? I would love to have that space (and fabric), its wonderful. Lucky you!

tessagin 04-17-2013 07:04 AM

I think your den is bigger than my house. Looks as big as one of the LQSs near me. I live in a small house with a small room for my quilting. Spent better part of yesterday prewashing and folding and trying to just organize my stash and not done yet. Looks great.

tatavw01 04-17-2013 07:29 AM

wow!!!!! it looks like an office just for quilting....congrats

solstice3 04-17-2013 08:18 AM

wow you have a ton of space!

DonnaC 04-17-2013 08:28 AM

Good thing there's no Ikea close to me... I'd be broke just from buying those awesome shelves! Love your room.

KalamaQuilts 04-17-2013 08:31 AM

Hey, I see an easy street back there!
I'm in lust for your stash. My reproductions quilt shop calls them dark and dirty and my how I do love them.
Great job!

newbee3 04-17-2013 08:39 AM

I thought I had a big stash but yours looks like a store enjoy

craftynell 04-17-2013 08:44 AM

This is outstanding.

sharin'Sharon 04-17-2013 09:24 AM

Whew!!! Who wouldn't want to have a sewing room like that to work in? Totally awesome and in order. You are one lucky sewer and can see the pride in your pictures. Thanks so much for sharing.

Wild8580 04-17-2013 09:26 AM

Yep! Finished my easy street and "dark and dirty" is what I love.

Wild8580 04-17-2013 09:35 AM

Thank you. I am truly blessed. If I had a pointed the camera the other way you would have seen a small kitchenette area with a little fridge, microwave and coffee pot. The bathroom is behind the kitchen area. We have 1800 square feet of finished basement. I have about half in my quilt den. Trust me I do mess it up and I have several quilting buddies who come to sew with me which makes for fun sewing.

pollyjvan9 04-17-2013 09:52 AM
