The part about having the thread organized by color is really a help... I have the rolling drawers with my regular sewing threads (sorted by color)and I have my cone threads on peg board sorted by color... the rest of my room... uhhhhhmmmmmmmm ... let's not go there :D

I just visited Libby's web site a few weeks ago. She's very talented, that's for sure.

Now, as for this clip, what I learned is:

First, you need a label maker...

Seems a little OCD to me. I like my room neat and all that but...really???

Somebody needs to get a life! I know she's great at what she does, but....has she heard the term "anal?"

I don't think I could sew around such an organized room. I need a little mess to be inspired. Besides, I can't hang any rulers or anything on my walls...there are quilts hanging there!

This looks more like a quilt shop than a home. This person must be a professional quilter and not a hobbiest.

I love what she did and I would love for mine to look like that and be that organized, but that is only in my dreams. I did have a very organized sewing room I thought with my little inexpensive ideas and make do (except when in process of a quilting project), then I added my grandmothers old bed that I refinished and a beautiful old timey dresser that I am in process of refinishing, my other grandmothers old sewing machine and cabinet that I 've refinished, a electric piano, an old treadle sewing machine, a big desk that I keep my PFAFF on, cabinets with my sewing supplies and material, my mini trampoline, and all of my musical instruments( a guitar, 2 banjos and a madoline.

Oh! I forgot to mention my toolbox that I keep hidden from my husband. Although my sewing room doesn't look like hers, I sure I am just as proud of it. It is my favorite room of the house. That room is me. :thumbup: but thumbs up to anyone who has a room like that. I loved all of it. ;-)
