No link for me as I'm too embarrassed and don't have time to straighten!<br />Here's a tip for managing to extract and insert with those fabric stacks. I've placed three sheets of 8.5 X 11 inch cardstock in each of two plastic page protectors. Slip the page protectors on either side of a fabric to be removed or place two together into the stack and slip in a new fabric.<br />Much easier!Dora, the Quilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16043451474748191494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8347662658917669211.post-12288201147834640812013-01-17T08:18:15.640-06:002013-01-17T08:18:15.640-06:00Oh, yeah!

I am now a new follower and hope to be adding my sewing room link in a few minutes. Thanks so much for hosting this Linky Party. I love visiting all the lovely sewing spaces ... :) PatScrapatcheshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11922866916373027618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8347662658917669211.post-14793723370718684942013-01-12T14:57:04.539-06:002013-01-12T14:57:04.539-06:00I think I'm your messiest entry so far! I was ...I think I'm your messiest entry so far! I was tempted to neaten it first, but realistically it's this messy half the time, so there it is. This space is also my office (I work from home) so I'm working at that desk 40 hours a week. I also do all my sewing and drawing there. The sewing machine (whose case looks disgraceful -- it's a beautiful old Morse sewing machine but the case is a little rough-looking, and I can't figure out a way to clean it without messing it up) slides out and the computer slides back to make room. My drawing board luckily fits without having to move anything around. The left hand side of the desk is especially trashed right now because I'm temporarily storing a bunch of debris there, but normally that's where I move the computer to while sewing. I mostly don't need to cut huge pieces of fabric at once, but when I need to I clear everything off the desk and stow the computer/monitor elsewhere in the room while I do it.<br /><br />The little chest of drawers has fabric in it. I try to keep the top mostly clear apart from stowing the drawing board up there because the whole space looks more open that way, but it's acquired a stack of sketchbooks and a box of handspun yarn samples. And a shawl that I need to put away. I knew it was messy, but I was sort of filtering it out, I think, because it took looking at the picture for me to see how out of control it was getting!Daisyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01396371121115945336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8347662658917669211.post-69003716653087428932013-01-12T12:17:01.820-06:002013-01-12T12:17:01.820-06:00I bought mine at either Target or Walmart years ag...I bought mine at either Target or Walmart years ago.
