However, I have the idea in my head of how I want everything to be when I finally have the space to do it. It includes shelves for the fabric, little jars with labels for buttons, ribbon, and those other little things, a drawer for patterns, and one day I shall have a proper table for my sewing machine :)Calikisseshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17935835064038738582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2110895181862454558.post-28151528205009994522011-05-25T15:10:37.616-07:002011-05-25T15:10:37.616-07:00I'm a disaster when it comes to organising my ...I'm a disaster when it comes to organising my craft space.... but what helps is organising fabrics by color.

Like I have a quilting binder, a binder for purses and then a knitting one split into projects, like socks and scarves and hats. It's really helped me find what I've been looking for.
