I have it posted on a couple websites Flickr and Webshots, as well as a forum which is about sewing room organization.

Actually, it was pretty easy, and fun, it just took some thought and a several trips to the Ikea Bargain Bin (As Is department).

I do too, that table is the heart of my room. I am so moved by color, that I had to figure out a way to display as much as possible. My first thought was fat quarters in the windows. It didn't take long to realize that was going to be way too much fabric. I rigged up a way to place little snippets of fabric on foam board inserts and popped them in the window recesses. It works great, I get to see the color, and was able to get the 400+ pieces together thanks to my sewing buddy and her huge stash.

If there is any more I can tell you about this one, just let me know. It was easy to make, I spent more time arranging my rulers than hubby spent making the holes for the nuts/bolts. We took one ruler to the hardware store to pick the right size nut/bolt combo.

Pictures of my quilts...I will get some up soon. I am new at this, so be easy on me! :)

Thanks again everyone, it's been fun sharing with you. The only thing better is if you could all just actually come by!
