Come and join me for this super fun video! In this video, I will show you how you can use a toolbox for amazing quilt room storage. It was so much fun filling this with my quilting tools! I was surprised by the amount of items it held. If you have a small space for your quilt supplies, this would be a great option because of the large storage capacity! My friend Rae has also shared photos of a toolbox she uses to hold her applique supplies so be sure to watch for those! Enjoy!

Hello, without having watched your video about your new green toolbox, my husband had already bought me one for Valentine’s Day. I was over the moon excited! 😊🎉 thanks for your video about setting it up. On the official Valentine’s Day, we have a date to go accessory shopping at harbor freight! We have great husbands! Btw, you are so cute on your channel. I appreciate your kindness and encouragement.

About a year ago we transformed the downstairs living room into my sewing "Studio" LOL Make me smile just saying that!😊 The one thing I KNEW i wanted (and have wanted for a LONG TIME)...is a tool box like this for my sewing space. I'll try and remember to take a few photos I also labeled the contents of each drawer. I agree...this is a GREAT addition to my new sewing space.. I'll have to go back and check out some of those magnetic accessories!!!

Oh my goodness! Thank you for sharing this. I would've never thought to use this for sewing room storage. I have walked past these in Harbor Freight (the red ones) for years. I have to check out the green ones. This may be the solution to my problem. 😊 If the measurements work out, I may have room to roll the cart away into my closet when not in use. I see they come in a variety of colors, but not lavender. 🤣

If I only had the room I’d get one myself to use. I bought a small table on wheel from a used office supply store years ago while I was working for a daycare and used it as my printer stand & overflow. When I left I took it with me. I’ve used it in my office for my own printer. Last year I decided to make it my cutting station (30”x42”) and bought a mat that lays on top. There’s a shelf underneath where I store three office totes and overflow batting on top of these. It’s on wheels so I can roll it up to me & my “Ultimate Sewing Cabinet”when I sew, or away when I used my office as an office. Otherwise I’d get the tool chest myself & make it for my sewing storage. Great suggestion!

In live in Canada and I bought a 3 piece rolling cart by Mastercraft at Canadian Tire store (the are red in color)that fits from the smallest tote on top, then the middle size and large one on bottom. It has large wheels and a telescoping handle to transport like luggage. The 3 pieces come apart. I use it when I go to my quilting group. I put my sewing machine in the bottom largest compartment. Sewing project in middle tote and sewing accessories in smallest. I wish I could post a picture of it. The top tote was sectioned off and I popped it out so I could put my sewing tools in it. I use the popped out plastic section on my desk to store scissors, rulers pens etc. It's amazing what you can find at automotive stores for using in our quilting rooms.

Mine had a lot of red and hers blue. I worked until I was 70 years old. So never has a lot of time. I'm 80 now, when I sew I still use my mothers Singer feather weight I crochet now that I have time.

Hello, my new friend, I went to Harbor Freight this afternoon, and I bought a blue magnetic bowl. I was talking to the man who worked there and telling him about your video, I told him don't be too surprised if he sees more ladies coming in to buy products for their sewing rooms. He smiled and said a lady came in just the other day and bought the tool chest, It was just like yours, color and all. How about that? You should also let your viewers know about the different size hemostats; they are perfect for turning fabric right side out.

And Roger has a wooden chest that is not as big as the one your friend has...and he offered it to me when his friend gave it to him, but I told him no, your friend gave it to you. But oh, I wanted it so bad. Now that he is past working on things, I may just take it and use it.

I have had my eye on these tool boxes for several years. I like that they have bright colors now, besides the red. Not that I don’t like red; I do. But the red has been out so long, it kinda screams, “Man’s tool box,” to me! 😂 I really appreciate you doing this review; you have shown lots of good ideas for both of them! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ My draw to these is that I want to make an ironing station, on wheels, that is wide enough to iron 45” fabric w/o hvg to reposition it all the time (side to side, then front to back, etc! It’s so tedious! And I want storage underneath. I think the metal wd work well for ironing with a pad on top, and you cd put magnets to hold it on, or use one of those dryer top ironing mats. I just have to find the right size. I also wish the bottom cabinet had doors on, to keep the dust out. Or else a really deep drawer. My only other concern is that they are so heavy. TFS! 🌷

Hi wished we had harbor freight over here. My first thought is its a great height for putting a wool mat on half and a rotating cutting mat on the other half. The small steam iron would fit easily into the storage below., it would give me more space on my sewing table.

Thanks to your husband (Les) we can now see the possibilities that a tool box can provide in a craft room. Wow who knew that there was so much storage. I love it on wheels. It would be a fabulous cutting station or an iron station. If you used the top storage for extra things that you do not need unless you need to replenish something. I love the container storage. That is 8 quilt project in the works!!! I love the rulers on the side the accessories you can add on the sides. The colors while they are beautiful like a brand new car 😊 would not fit my decor in my craft room 😢. Thanks for sharing 🤗
