Welcome to the third week of the Creative Spaces Blog Hop! Today is all about organizing tips.
First, the thread. I have a LOT of thread. In order to organize it all I have two thread cabinets from Arrow. They allow me to store all of my thread as well as give a place for my scrap fabrics.
Next the scissors. I had many discussions with my family about how my sewing scissors are only to be used for fabric. I finally thought of a solution, separate the scissors and tell them to never touch them! To separate them I use a magnetic knife rack from Ikea.
Binding is the bane of my existence. I hate making binding. So I was overjoyed to discover binding by the roll. But how to store it? I came up with the solution of ribbon racks. I am able to store the binding and then use it directly off the rack. It is easy and takes a lot less time when I am doing my binding!
Want to come hang out while I stream? My schedule is always on my Facebook and my Twitter. I also announce on Instagram when I go live. We have a lot of fun, talk about sewing and quilting and of course have daily giveaways. I am the giveaway queen after all.
