My DM lives in a very small apt. She stores most fabric in the bigger tubs--too bad they aren't clear... The projects she is working on and her UFOs are in recycled shoe and boot boxes--again not see thru. She used to label them but as time goes on the labels are no longer correct so it is a hunt and peck sort of way to find what she wants, but it works for her. LOL
I am having an antique dresser that was my DM's aunts refinished. This is going to be my new place to store my fabric. Right now??? Oh, my fabric is in the box that my sewing machine came in...LOL I hang smaller projects that are ready for quilting on hangers in half of a double door closet. Magazines and books are stored on the top shelf of the closet. Larger ones go to a LAQ. I do have a sewing cabinet for some of my sewing needs and a desk that was my FIL's that will hold some of my tools...(I need to complete emptying it to decide how to really organize it for me... I also have some totes for other crafts in the bottom of the closet. And finally, I have a peg board that is upstairs now but is to come down to my new sewing area off my living room. This will store all my rulers and other tools needed for various tasks.
As you can see my area is a work in progress and forget what it looks like when I am on a roll. I need to be better about cleanup but when someone comes by, I close off the french doors and let it be...LOL
