This is my cutting table. It looks like a storage unit because for some reason I have been pulling things out to look at them for current or future projects and they have just be piling up there. The plan is that when I finish posting this blog I will go back to the studio and CLEAN UP THAT MESS.
Besides quilt I also embroider. I have a growing collection of embroidery threads, which I also use for quilting, and had outgrown the portable holders I was using. I found this
at an antique mall in St. Augustine, FL. I have no idea what it was originally used for but it is perfect for thread. I can see everything, it holds hundreds of spools of thread, and everything is dust free. And it makes a beautiful, colorful, large art piece in my sewing room.
And this is the oldest antique in my studio: me. The studio is three rooms and this is the quilting room. There is just enough room for the quilt frame, some shelves and me. It is the only room where no TV runs because I can’t watch or even listen to TV when the HQ 16 is running, both because I have to concentrate and because of the noise. However, I do love this room. I have a bay window, facing south, on the other side of the frame and two large windows that face west. It is so light in that room that I only have to turn on the lights at night.

Thanks for the tour of your studio for the storage ideas....very good storage you have there.
I like the messy one - that how I end up and I hate it! I'm a bit of a neat-freak so love the tidiness of the rest of your studio - wish i could have somewhere as special as that - by the way, you are not ol enough to be antique yet, vintage maybe (lol)!

oh, when I saw the first photo, I thought you'd never get to see the table! Amazing job and don't you feel good?
I have just a corner in our basement and I must keep it tidy or I can't get to it!
Lucky you.
That was fun! And your picture looks GREAT! I love your smile and I love the natural light from the window :) Perfect :)
Fabulous studio! I love your storage items.
Your space is great!!! Love the storage thingys, great ideas.
I'm glad to hear some one else has more than one room for their studio. The embroidery thread storage is perfect. Most of mine is in drawers that I can't see through and I forget what I have.
