Calling it done

This should be the last set of photos for the room redo. The two french doors lead into the formal living room. The two other doors are closets which house more fabric, WIPS, UFOs and quilts ready to quilt. The cube holds some of my Accuquilt dies and the cutter on top. Plus some odds and ends. 

For this view I am standing in front of one of the closets. The new white cabinets are holding fabric, thread, and kits I have cut out. My stereo system on top along with a tub of modern fabrics(I had no other place to store them). You also see the two new lift tables for the sewing machines. The cubes are my cutting station which resumed it's original position and the ruler rack on the wall. 

And lastly I am standing in the kitchen doorway looking at my mini quilt wall, pressing station and design wall. This was a big job giving this room a major facelift but I am loving it and ready to get back into creating full steam ahead;)

Moving in

 Little by little I am getting moved back in to the refreshed sewing room. First up is the new white cupboards I got from Amazon. They came in four boxes with a gazillion pieces! Remember last winter we put together several items together so we knew what we were getting into, LOL. We took two days to assembled them. each cupboard is in two pieces, a top and a bottom, otherwise it would be to heavy for us. Once in place you attach the top to the bottom.

The next day we brought in the two new lift tables for the sewing machines. Also from Amazon. I should have be an affiliate for all the stuff we buy from there, LOL.  Next we moved the pressing station in, I have been using that for several years and I love it. We made it with a cube unit from Ikea and put rollers on it. You will see a better view of it later on. And my ruler rack is back on the same wall next to the door leading into the kitchen.

Okay please don't judge me by this next photo! Remember my sewing room has been a working sewing room for 32 years. I know I have a LOT of stuff in there, but I also knew pretty much where everything was. But I have been wanting to do something a little cleaner, neater and a little emptier! So I had to show the before and you'll see all of the after in a week or so with a whole new arrangement. When I took this photo I was standing in the French door way of the living room. My sewing room is what would be a formal dining room which we would never have used as we have an eat in kitchen. So when we built the house we agreed this would be my knitting/sewing room. 

Several of you asked if I found things I had forgotten about or lost. The answer is that I pretty much knew everything I had but it was a trip down memory lane in some cases, finding things I hadn't used in years. A very good exercise in realizing I don't need to buy much of anything!!
