Don't you feel so much better now that you are organized? Looks great. Happy quilting.

Now come do my family room please, lol. I swear a bomb went off in there. Your house looks great! I just bought a tool box to gather all the threads, pins and whatevers. Now to whip the fabric stash back into it's hole, lol.

I still havent master her tension yet.. seems like I get it right, put her away.. and then the next time I use her, again with the snapping thread. I will figure her out tho!! :)

Makes all the difference. I did that a few years ago when I was using the family room.I had it looking so nice I didn't want to mess it up.

Looks like ALL positive energy now!! Bet you will create some beautiful quilts.

Great Job. Bet it makes it more fun to sew now. Want to help me clean my stash area?? Thanks for the inspiration. :)

great job

What a great job- I can image you feel so much better.
Something that I love, is shelves on the wall. You can put up books and even stack fabric. It helps get things off the floor. I see a spot right next to your picture that you could put up about 3 shelves maybe 10" deep and a few feet long.
Just an idea :) Keep up the good work
