Can you tell us about the view out the window? That really caught my eye.
I foresee many enjoyable, creative hours spent in that wonderful studio.

I swear...I really do think my fabric multiplied like rabbits on the trip over here. EVERYTHING that I had fabric in on Guam is full again and I still have fabric that needs to be put awaly I only bought maybe 10 yards total of fabric since I got back to the states.

You ONLY bought 10 yards? What remarkable restraint! :shock: :lol:

Hey Terri and Joanne - CT (Connecticut right?) and VA (Virginia? - not bad for a Limey!) are the same side of the country aren't they? Although I know that in the States that can mean they're several days' drive apart! Maybe I'll do a road trip one of these here days!

BTW the plastic bins on the top shelves also came from Ikea (although sold separately) and 5 fit perfectly on each shelf. You can adjust the height of the top shelf to accomodate different heights of bin if you like, but I like the combination of small ones for scraps, strings etc and larger ones for yardage and FQs. The others I got in a shop locally but I think those tubs are widely available. :-D

The bars where my quilts hang are also Ikea - called Bygel and they were £2 each! Which I think is around $2.50. The trouser hangers are called Bumerang (don't try to throw them though, doesn't work! LOL) and they were 49p each, but I think Ikea in the States is cheaper still. My little drawer on wheels is called Micke and was around £40. The two small drawers are the perfect height for thread to stand there. Hans is going to make me something with little dowels to lay in there to stand them on so they don't fall over. And no I DON'T work for Ikea! Should do though, then I'd get staff discount! LOL!
