I have one and can't imagine not having it.

I have a long one above my short cabinets in the cutting/fabric room which holds most of my rulers, bindings on TP rolls waiting to be attached. On the other side of this wall is my machine room and I have all my threads using the metal hooks. I have my threads arranged by type.......embroidery, quilting, regular and serger. My embroidery thread is arranged to match the thread chart so I can easily look at the chart and know where I can find that particular thread. I also labelled with the thread number so I can put it back where it belongs. Obviously I had too much time on my hands that day.

this made me think of hanging pegboard from ceiling. {in out of way space} Put up a 2 x 4 and attach pegboard to it. Make it up high, so can reach up with tools and put on hooks, over your head. Maybe over table so won't hit head. Only one or two rows of hooks. Tools you put on them use their own length to reach hook.

i love my pegboard. i have all of my thread hanging on it on june taylor spool racks. an i love to hang other notions that i use while at the machine.

Becky, had to laugh at the ceiling idea. Don't get me wrong, I think it is a great idea. The reason I had to laugh is quilters are always looking for more space in their sewing rooms; the ceiling, the final frontier.

aaaahahahahaha!

Then there's when we bend the space/time continuum & we can store stuff in the past. Hmmm? What year did I put that orange fabric in?

What the heck is this pile here???!? I was going to use that spot. Dang you, future quiltmouse!

Love the pegboard for all my long arm stuff because it makes it so easy to find everything. I thought my stuff looked organized, but WOW, all these other setups are awesome!

I love all of these ideas! The pix are great too. Everything looks so organized. I think that the best thing about pegboards is that they use vertical space that would otherwise be wasted. There is a zero foot print. Plus, they add some visual interest to the walls too. Now my little brain is thinking of what I could do with pegboard?...hummmmm.....

I have a very small bedroom for my office/sewing room. My husband framed a piece of pegboard and hung it on the backside of the door leading to the hallway. I hang all my rulers there, and when the door is open flat against the wall, they don't show.

loisf- that's a great idea.
