A LQS uses antique cribs to stand bolts of fabric in!! Another has an antique wooden cradle for the sale fabrics.



Which reminds me ... At a garage sale last year, I bought a lovely colonial wooden baby change table for my sewing room. The top works perfect for setting in progress projects to the side, along with the assorted fabrics. I found wicker bins/baskets that fit the shelves, and store separate projects in each. Once filled it has lost it's baby look!!!
