My friend was so proud when she showed me her box of quilting stuff.


As for the room, very sweet.

My valance is Butterick 3748. Unfortunately it is no longer in print. I made the valance several years ago. But in looking to see if it still was in print I found a couple of free downloads from Butterick. One is a sewing machine organizer that hangs over the edge of your sewing desk under the machine and the other is a sewing organiser that looks like it might be nice to take on trips or just sit by your favorite chair for handwork.

Ah, but you have done many of us a great service showing these photos!! Less guilt about our own stash, but for me, envy for your organizational skills!!

LOVE the Parlor! Absolutely the coolest.
If you look closely at the rolling cart picture you will see why they work for me. I got the idea to reinforce them by having my hubby cut a piece of mdf cut to fit the bottom. He then screwed new casters to the mdf and then screwed them to the carts. Too bad I had this idea after we had all of the shelves already in the closet and filled. Everything had to be raised about 4 inches to accommodate the larger casters. OOPS
I don't know how you all do it with the carts... all my wide carts *8* of them - got so filled with fabrics that they wouldn't roll, sagged, couldn't get the drawers open or shut... cloth too heavy for the wide plastic carts! I do have 3 small carts I use for fusibles, stabilizers, zippers, etc. But no more big carts! lol..
