Great question. You may want to get something you can add to over time.

For storage, I have four Ikea Billy Bookcases with doors on them. The doors have clear glass on the top half. They were simple to put together. They hold a lot of fabric etc. They can handle a lot of weight. I also use industrial baking racks. Amazon has shelf liners for these too. Good luck!

Crokinole is a board game....in a lot of pubs.

It is important to get furniture and storage that works for you. Some people like a large cutting area. Some are fine with a 18 x 24 mat space. It depends on the kind of quilting you do and how often you are working on projects. Good luck in your search and I hope you find the combination that makes the whole experience of quilting more enjoyable.

I love this idea for a couple of reasons. First, I love those lawyers bookcases. They are so cool looking. The second is you can display your fabric safely and it looks fantastic. Such a great decorative but functional piece. I've seen photos of people displaying their quilts in glass front pieces. I'd love to get my hands on one of these bookcases. Well done!

The furniture arrived last weekend, and it is all put together.

Now, to just organize everything!

MarionsQuilts, very beautiful wardrobes, I also want to put one in my room. How did you find it?
