My dream space to work and create may still be in the distant future but the need to organize is long over due! Since the arrival of our second child I have decided that if I have any chance at taking advantage of the little time I get to sew that I had better get things in order.
I'm fairly new to sewing. I took a home economics class in eighth grade that touched on the subject briefly, but didn't even think about sewing again until I found out I was pregnant for the first time. (Looking at tiny homemade things when you're hormonal is dangerous!) I got my sewing machine shortly after Amelia was born and slowly started accumulating things as I would work on projects. Now here we are two years later and my project list has grown and so has the mess of supplies you can find nesting in any free space in our home.
I saw the idea for this way of storing thread a while back and made a mental note that it needed to be on my to-do list. I love having things very organized and I also like things pretty so that I'm inspired to use them and this project happens to do both! (Sorry, there are no step-by-step photos. There were a lot of 'helping hands' with this project!)
