Also make sure to label all of your stuff. With that many scissors and rulers in one room you don't want to misplace your stuff.
Absolutely ... Label! Label! Label .... even your sewing machine!
Better still ... be sure to check your list before you leave to come home. Nothing worse then losing some of your supplies ... or the foot pedal! :)
I've been making a list of things for making a carrying case for the miscellaeous supplies. Last night, I realized I hadn't thought about the extension table ... added to the list now!
