Welcome! I have no advice for storage and organization. I couldn't organize my way out of a paper bag. Everything goes in a tub, I only just last week purchased a tub Just for left over squares, strips, and scraps.

Love the boxers. We have 2 ourselves. Love their hugs and great personalities. My female is my shadow, my husband swears she's the quilter in the family.

Thanks everyone for all the great ideas. I'm from Portland, Oregon. I really lke the idea of using the zip-lock bags and the space bags. The room that I will be using as my sewing room does have a closet and already has shelves and some drawers. Can't wait to get everything setup and organized.

Hello and welcome, someone suggested using skirt hangers and this is a good idea but I use drapery hangers from the cleaners, they are heavy duty hangers with a large cardboard roll on it about 1" diameter. You mentioned a new home and wanted to share what I did in my sewing room. I hung 10" wide shelves 11" from the ceiling with shelf brackets that hold a wooden closet rod. I use the shelves for all my quilting books and magazine then on the rod I hang all of my projects and pressed fabric for the project I'm working on.
