Has a big bath ( I keep my batting in the shower stall!)and a small kitchenette for a small fridge, ice machine, microwave, small sink and hot water dispenser for making iced tea. Yes, in TX we drink iced tea all year long! I call my sewing space "my lair" and hubby knows when I disappear that is where I am likely to be. Does anyone have a method of storing scraps that keeps them flat? My two baskets overfloweth and it is a royal mess. I was trained by my quilting teacher ( a former first grade teacher who had infinite patience with me) to NEVER throw a scrap larger than a 2X2 away! I just cannot do it. Help! I am a a fabric junkie..............
LOL! I keep batting, pillow inserts, and other bulky stuff in the tub/shower. No one has ever showered out in the studio bath. Would need to give me a "10 minute warning" if they wanted to!
