I did this at Christmas. As soon as I finished the Christmas sewing, I cleaned out everything looking for 3 missing seam rippers and the add-a-quarter ruler. Found the ruler and a ton of stuff I didn't know I was missing! Reorganized things, too. Now the whole space (which is not very much) is covered with a paper-piecing project that isn't going to be finished very soon.

Never did find the seam rippers, but I got another one for Christmas.

Thanks Margo. I like this idea. I have been avoiding my space as it is an unfinished basement. My husband is going to start finishing it and he wants me to move things, clean up, and put things away. I am starting right after I run the vacuum and I will watch a quilt show while I do it. Rotary cutter blade? I will sharpen mine. As for the ironing board, another task I have been meaning to tackle. Right on it! (after I finish the forum).

PosyP OFFLINE Posts: 4106 Thank you received: 361	'How to eat an elephant - one bite at a time' My ironing table doubles as my cutting table, but at the moment I can barely use a quarter of it, I desperately need to join in, because I want to get going with some pattern cutting, which has no chance of happening currently. Will try to remember the before & after pictures for entertainment. Rosemary

sdgodfrey OFFLINE Posts: 10	Sheez Louise, Margo! Have you been peeking into my quilting space??? Ok, my ironing area isn't too bad, but the cutting table will definitely be a challenge! And the ironing board cloth is due for a good cleaning. I'll try to be inspired and give it a go.
