Things can become so organized that even the method of organization needs organization. Talk about micro-managing. And who has thousands of bobbins like that?

I think this studio belongs to Libby Leeman. I saw some of it on The Quilt Show.

I admit to being an organization junkie when I was teaching second grade. I have a more limited budget now, so I try to make do with what I have on hand so I have money for fabric.

I have to admit that I liked the magnet bars with the wire mesh baskets and the labels in Libby's studio.

Loved the music. It gave me an idea for my space - how to use a coatpeg rack I have and haven't used yet. I guess you can tell that she is in the business and needs to be that organized.

When I read that the room was only 14' x 14' I about choked. I would love a room to be only 14' x 14' to call my own. I think if I had my own space, I would be able to take on some of those organizational methods myself. As it is, I am happy to be able to find my stuff, let alone worry about if it is organized. It was a cool slide-show though. One can only dream. However, I think if that was my room, it would too time consuming to keep it up.

Organization doesn't have to be expensive. I use shoeboxes for my patterns, and those plastic containers that salad greens come in are perfect for fat quarters.
