Since I sew at my dining room table, it's only appropriate that I store my stash in the china cabinet, right?

LOL, why not? The fabric is prettier than most dinnerware.

I have a sister who does this! Not a bad idea. I used to sew on the dining room table too, until I got tired of having to move the sewing machine to eat dinner or have the kids do their homework. Great storage and looks neat!

I have a sewing room, but I've thought of displaying quilts in my china cabinet. I know I'd enjoy them in there more than the china, etc. that's currently stored there. Actually, I have a friend who did that and it looks really nice.

Great idea and dust free too. I also sew in my dining room, living room and wherever else I happen to be. My second bedroom has become storage for all of my supplies and an extra cutting table.

We are redoing our kitchen this spring. I called dibbs on the island and cabinets- to go in the basement for my sewing room. Hubby rolled his eyes and said "whatever".

I'm also going to take the china closet and 2 bookcases and cabinet. I can't wait to "take over" and have a real sewing room.
