Been a bit MIA lately
Well all the older puppies have gone to their forever homes so life here is a bit quieter. Still have 5 pups here but they are only 3 weeks old so they don't make too much noise or demand too much of me right now.............
So while I have had a bit of a hiatus I decided to tackle the infamous sewing room and see if I could get a bit of it organized....had this brilliant idea to take the closet doors off and put shelves in there to handle the little bit......I mean the vast amounts of fabrics that I have accumulated. It was all jumbled in several spots and hard to see what I had and what I needed.......Well really don't NEED any more but........gotta leave options open don't you?
So what I did was put the two shelving units I had together. Took off the doors so that you could see what there was and open it up.
Then I folded all the material that I had the same way and sorted it according to color/design/designer/fat quarters etc. Look how nicely it all fits on my shelves now. Every single piece of fabric that was mine is now where I can see it...woohoo! I still have a couple of boxes my daughter gave me but want to make sure that she really doesn't want it back now that she has a potential sewing room in the making. Beside...I don't think I can fit it in anywhere........oops...just remember I lied......I have two more bins of older fabric that I just stuck under my bed...there is no way they are going to fit on the shelves until I get myself in gear and make some more blankets or doll clothes!!!
See how pretty :)
This side has got my precuts on the top shelf and all my UFO's on the shelves below....will get those finished now that I can see them :) And then flannel on the bottom...woohoo...I am so organized..well till I start a project that is :)
This is stuff that I still need to get into the room....hopefully a shelf is going into the closet today to put the fleece that I have and lace and anything else I don't use all the time up there. It got painted yesterday and I bought the shelf and brackets today.........hopefully hubby will be able to get it up before he goes to work...then my bedroom will be cleaned and will have a organized sewing room.........
Now to sew, sew, sew
