I am a widow and live alone with my cat. I have a room in my basement where my fabric is stored and where I cut my fabric. I bought a great little cart at Aldi that has 2 laundry bags hanging under the top that is an ironing board. I use the laundry bags fir scraps and I keep it in my fabric room. I have continued to buy fabric until I am totally overwhelmed but would buy more today if a friend called and asked if I wanted to go to a QS. My cutting tables are hidden under fabric and I must go clean it soon. I sew upstairs in a bedroom I had for my late mother. This space stays pretty neat since I work on one project at a time. I have another iron and ironing board in this room. I need to stop shopping but it is so much fun and I so love fabric!
