Before I moved, I had 3 different sewing areas as well as some bags that were ready to go to different classes so I could grab and go. As I have been unpacking my stuff (I was so sick when we moved that I had friends, family and movers to pack for me), I have found multiples of a lot of my notions so I keep the ones I like the best close to where I work in cups or glasses and the rest are stowed in labeled plastic boxes on my window sill.
