Accidental Quilter

Love to quilt, but don't have time to maintain a website--so here's a quilt blog instead. I'll try to post photos of new quilts and friends and any new quilt tips I learn along the way!

Accidental Quilter cleans studio! (the good, the bad)


My studio has been a disaster zone for years, and I broke down and have begun reorganizing and moving furniture the last few weeks. I keep learning what works and what doesn't--this is my daughter's old bedroom and it is small . I'll list the "goodies" and the "badies" I've found while organizing.
Good ideas: Place your sewing machines and serger near the computer so that you only have to have one comfy office chair on rollers in the room. Leave enough room to roll back and forth.
Put your quilting machine on your quilting cabinet and your piecing or embrodiery machine on your regular cabinet. (My Bernina 180 is being tuned up now--but it will sit where the Elna Grasshopper is sitting now. I put it there because it was such a nice photo opportunity to set it right below its own little quilt. :)
Bad idea: See the thread holder sitting on the white cabinet? I'll probably end up moving the stuff on the wall so it can be mounted on the wall behind the embrodiery machine. Posted by Picasa

Wanna come to my house and help me organize too? :c) I love the feeling I get when the room is "just so"....Your room looks really cozy and I bet it's great to have your own space so nice!! Love the little grasshopper machine...I WANT ONE! (arealdy have two featherweights, 2 treadles, a Wilson and Gibbs machine base that doesnt work, and numerous other machines :c) We just want it all!
