Never going to get rid of my vintage sewing machines. They are treasures!

[@thesimplequilter7499]

Yes! I am not sure my Singer is vintage but I have my mothers and I will definitely keep hers!

[@fernlamberson565]

Red! Red! Red! Having things near by is a great Idea! Lovely quilt room. ❤ Thanks again for a informative video! 😊 🌻🐛🐝

Love your cabinet with the sliding door! You hammered home "A place for everything and everything in its place." Space management is like time management. You have to have a system, and you have to develop the habits to work within the system and do periodic housekeeping--as you so aptly note. David Allen's "Getting Things Done" is a system that I adopted as it appealed to my work preferences over other systems. Nothing is such a time burner as trying to find something (fabric, tools, rulers, glasses) (Labeling folders (as it was a work based system not crafting!) was central to creating an easy index).

Thank you for sharing! I totally agree!! Hunting for lost/misplaced items is a huge waste of time!!! Plus you usually create more of a mess as you are searching!! I will have to take a look at the resource you shared! Thanks for sharing!

[@conniefath1758]

I like the idea of a red white pink stripes too. Like this video. And the tips for vertical storage.

[@thesimplequilter7499]

Thanks Connie! I just pulled out my quilt and I am going to look at all the options all of you have mentioned!!! I am so excited to try some of these I had not thought of!!!!

[@rebeccakahler2081]

Love your ideas. I love to make scrap quilts. I bought a library card catalog for for fat quarter, jelly rolls, rotary cutters, and small rulers. The handles have a place for a card. I organized by color and placed a card with color of fabric that's in each drawer. Everything stays clean and looks beautiful 😍. Now when I get ready to make a block...I pull out the drawer and take to my cutting table. Has saved me hours

[@thesimplequilter7499]

Rebecca, I love this idea! Such an amazing way to store your fabric! It is such a great way to make your fabric accessible !! That is so important when quilting!!!! Thank you so much for sharing!!!! Wish I had one!!! Plus I love antiques!!!!

[@karin0963]

Great tips! Thank you.

[@thesimplequilter7499]

Thank you!

[@sandrak7267]

A red binding! I follow your guidelines all but the labeling! Staying organized saves time!

[@thesimplequilter7499]

Sandra, the labeling has made a huge difference for me in staying organized!

[@brendanewsome705]

A scrappy binding would be pretty

[@thesimplequilter7499]

I have used scrappy bindings before and they look nice and help use up scraps!

[@ChiaraOsborne]

The heart quilt is pretty. I think I would do pink or red.

[@thesimplequilter7499]

Thank you!

[@wesfox4455]

I like the black polka dots

[@thesimplequilter7499]

That was my second favorite!

[@notesfromleisa-land]

P. S. Consider black print (dots/checks) as an alternative for your binding.

[@thesimplequilter7499]

I will add that to my list of fabrics to audition! I just got my quilt out to check out the great ideas all of you have shared!!!

[@marygeorge9688]

Red binding. Thank you for sharing your tips.

[@thesimplequilter7499]

I do like the red binding!

[@pegfairchild4525]

Hi Michelle. What about that red checked that I see in your fabric stash for your binding?

[@thesimplequilter7499]

I will check out the red check! Good eye! I hadn’t thought of it!

[@sandan2358]

I’d do a pink stripe binding from the fabric in the heart quilt. Thanks for the tips.

[@thesimplequilter7499]

That’s a great idea!! I do not have any more of the stripe though.

[@theresaconner7173]

Where did you get your barn door cabinets? Love them!

[@thesimplequilter7499]

I got them several years ago at Walmart! They work out great in my quilt room!

[@wesfox4455]

Good video!! I love you!!💕💕

[@thesimplequilter7499]

Thanks Wes!🥰

[@cj6337]

scrappy white, red and pink

[@thesimplequilter7499]

I like this idea also!

[@robinhamilton7079]

The red with white dots in your cupboard would be nice.

[@thesimplequilter7499]

Wow! Another awesome idea I had not thought of!!! I will audition it!!!

[@lauralankford1148]

Thanks

[@thesimplequilter7499]

You are so welcome!

[@lindashelton3117]

Make a scrappy binding with your let over sc4aps!

[@thesimplequilter7499]

I have done that and it makes beautiful bindings!!!

[@cherylhumphries7950]

Pink!

[@thesimplequilter7499]

Thank you for your input!

[@thesimplequilter7499]

Thank you for your input!

[@juliescreativeneedle7794]

Pink

[@thesimplequilter7499]

Thank you for responding!!

[@stamperammagash6945]

Black would make the colours pop. Red will be lost and white is dangerous as a binding as it picks up every bit of dirt

[@thesimplequilter7499]

I have used black as a binding before and I know what you mean by making colors pop. I hadn’t thought of it but I will audition it! Great idea! I agree with using white as a binding
