I Re-organized My Whole Sewing Room
 

It took the better part of two hours, but it was worth it. All the stuff that belongs in boxes are in them. Found some stuff I forgot I had too. Notice the signs inside the boxes? It is so nice to find things quickly now.

i love the idea of the signs inside the boxes. i'm about to get reorganized and that will help!
your space looks terrific.

Beautiful quilting space. You certainly got it nice and neat! Mine looks like a tornado went thru it. One named Logan!

Thanks so much. I am always writing information about things on 3 x 5 cards, and one day it came to me that I could go right to the box I wanted if it "told" me where it was. I do not have much space for my favorite hobby, but I make sure I use every inch I can.

How organized your room looks!!! Do you make housecalls?

I love your organized quilting space! Great job!

Looks wonderful!

Beautiful quilting space.

Great organization. I do the same thing with the index cards. It sure does save time when you are looking for something. Good job!!

Well, I started the hideous task of reorganizing fabric, but backed myself into a corner, as I can't physically do anymore, and have to wait for my weekly help to come --next Thursday--she's on Spring break. And there is a lot of fabric to put away.

So after I saw you photo, I decided I CAN work on my drawers and weed those out and relable. They are supposed to be "current projects" but I counted and I think there are about 130. Yes if I were a kid today instead of an old lady, I would be ADHD.

Thanks for the great idea. Off to collect pen, lables, diet coke and find my comfy chair.

What an inspiration you are.

I agree patsy... I wonder if she will take fabric in exchange for helping make mine look like that?

My quilt room is organized chaos. I don't think I could get another piece of fabric in there if I tried. My friend's son wanted me to repair a shirt for him and brought it to me in my quilt room. He stood there looking around and then asked me if I had ever seen the show 'hoarders' (little brat).

looks very nice

Nice quilting space. I love the way you organized it.

nice job, I too have signs in boxes

Looks great. Having the work space all clean and orderly is so nice.

Oh that looks wonderful...so organized. :-)

Great Re-O. Like the idea of the list cards inside the boxes. Thanks for the great tip. Simple things make life so much easier!
peace

Looks great!

Oh Honey, if I lived closer, I would take that deal in a heartbeat!!!

Good for you!! I bet you are glad it's done.

Cards inside the box makes so much more sense than cutting little pieces of paper & taping them on (like I do). The cards give a lot more writing space too ! Love your well organized space....now I need to go re-do mine, LOL.

Great job!!! Looks really good!!!!

Mine would take a lot more that 2 hours maybe 2 days at least. Your sewing room is wonderful

will you come to my house and help me do mine

doesn't it feel great to have a tidy space? good for you!

I really need to hang some peg board! Thanks for showing how helpful that is.

Great job. Wish mine was 1/2 as organized.

I love to look at other people's sewing spaces. Yours looks ready for a new project!

Great job! I reorganized my fabric about a year ago but every time I buy more, it ends up in the wrong place so it is not very organized any more.

Nice sewing space. I wish I could get this organized in two hours.

Sure!!! How many yards do I get to keep? lol.

Looks great! Love the labels.

You are a terrific organizer!!! Wish I could make my clutter look so good! Great job!!

WOW, I'm impressed. It's something I'm slowly getting around to, but we moved from a house to an apt., then I had a spinal cord injury that sidelined me for about 6-8 months last year before I could even start quilting again. However, now that I'm back almost 95% (the Dr. predicted 80%), I'm back to my passion, but I also need to "straighten up" my sewing room, which is also my bedroom, which means if I put anything on the bed during the day it all has to come off at night, which does not help for "organization", but I'm getting better. Congratulations on your hard work, and the labels are a big help.

looks great and very organized

been working on mine too but it isn't done...think I will quilt instead of finishing

Only 2 hours, you must be a neat freak. Cleaning and sorting my sewing room would take a week at least.

looks great... so organized... i dont think mine will ever be there..lol....

I always start organizing....I get an area done, but instead of going on to the next, I start a project or work on one. If my area ever looked as organized as yours - it wouldn't take me long to mess it up. Great job.
