Sometimes I wish I had one of those beamy up things like on Star Trek - then I could just say 'beam me up, quiltncrazy' and come over for the afternoon! :D

you wouldn't even need to bring your machine. I have two set up, and my serger. You'll love the cave. I have a design board and a cutting, i'll call it a station, cause i had to take a piece of plywood, covered it with contact paper, and put it across, well, I made my own area for cutting and ironing. works great. Then we have two shelving units with curtains, to look at stash, then a BIG area that goes down one part of one wall, turns corner and goes another four foot. There are four shelves with these, and curtain must be about nine feet long to cover all that...that's curtain #3...you guessed it...more stash...then...nope, we're not done,...closet has all these hangers with space savers, so you can see fabs coordinated by would-be projects. There's quilt batting in there, pillow/toy stuffings, stabilizers, some coats and prom dresses I picked up at thrift shops etc. to recycle for granddaughters and pillows, whatever. nope, not done. the cutting area has a few bins under it, big bin on wheels under one of the sewing tables, is about 3.5 feet long and full of fleece, and flannel, oh yeah, there's a cabinet, when you first walk in, has projects lined up in boxes, "priority" projects...(grandbabies)...last but not least...other sewing table has some bins under it, old sewing machines and a small two drawer, part of an old dresser that I painted and filled with stuff, like clamps, ppr clips, markers, pens, all kinds of tape,...oh yeah, have a roller around, 3-drawer thingy filled with all kinds of doo-dads like that and more, too. Gee, listing it like this, I must be spoilt rotten. Do I stink? :wink:
Someday I'll get pics and get computer geek brother to help me post. I used to be a little embarrassed by all my toys, but you guys would just love them. forgot 4 x 8 pegboard on wall, oh and three more sets of shelves with shoe boxes with fat quarters, scraps, more books. Oh, I have left out tons of shelves...not bragging,....sharing. It's a quilters dream world in there. Lot of it, was given to me...blush, lot of it was bought too... :oops: :D
