How can I keep from having my sewing space full of stuff that falls on the floor and my ironing space is only about the first 12 inches of the ironing board?
I'm a container freak, so it was no surprise when I kept the little plastic containers that beef bouillion cubes come in. I didn't know what I'd do with them, but when I got into quilting, I found they work perfectly to keep by my sewing machine and drop all the clipped threads in.
As far as organizing the rest of my 'stash' and all my quilting supplies - I haven't quite figured that part out either! I've got fabric all over my dining room, some in my living room, and some in the bedroom too!!
