I had seen tackle it tuesday done on some blogs and I immediately knew I needed to participate this week. My sewing space was in major need of a clean up and revamp.
Here’s my sewing machine(Singer Futura) and serger(babylock imagine) on a clean table (I didnt take a before pic of this table for a reason… it was embarassingly overfull)
Here is how I am storing my metal and polyresin snaps.
I organised my ribbons and put them in a drawer so I can easily get to them.
And here is the big job! I had to prewash all this fabric, iron and then fold it so that it looks neat and is accessible. It is AMAZING…. these fabrics took up 2 cabinets of this size… after it was ruler folded using this tutorial I fit it all into one cabinet.
As a beginner sewer I did not color code my fabrics(since I do not have nearly enough) so I organised them based on fabric type.
Upper shelf from left to right: Minky, ribbing, knits, woven
Bottom: fleece, bamboo velour, microfleece, suedecloth, pul(diaper making fabrics), and flannels.
I wonder if I should fold my baby blankets this way… 🙂

Looks great! What do you sew? Just wondering what type things you use the snap press for. I've been debating getting one of the littler ones. Your set up looks nice. 🙂
