| The design wall is constructed from 4 bulliten boards mounted on the wall. I covered the boards with
a grey flannel fabric. The chest is mostly full of quiting cottons. Supposedly, I put the cutting table away, but since my
daughter has taken over my worktable, I haven't put the cutting table away.
| The 2 cupboards contain fashion fabric and some gift wrapping supplies. In theory, when they are full, I stop
buying fabric.
The wall cabinets have books, notions, and embellishments. About 2/3s of my patterns are in the tubs under the
sewing cabinet. The tubs are the size larger than the shoebox size, and they fit sthe standard pattern very well. A large
pattern envelope can lay flat in the boxes, and the ones with the high top lid can accomodate both at once. So far, these
tubs are toddler proof.

My husband built the worktable. It's 41 inches high. I love it. The cutting table is too low, and I get backaches if I'm
working at it for extended periods of time. It will be nice when my son is more trustworthy, and I can move my daughter's
stuff off of this table and store things under it again.

| | My Bernina 1001 sewing machine and Elna 744 serger. I don't recommend a sewing cabinet like mine.
The machines must be available at all times if a busy women is going to be able to sew in 5 or 10 minute bursts.
I do like the pnuematic lift under my sewing machine.
| The wall mounted ironing board is wonderful when you have small children. I like the full length mirror, too. I secure
my iron to the board with a bunge cord.
| My Bernina 180E on a desk built by my husband. He bought a ready made countertop and screwed it to two old
chestof drawers. This sewing cabinet is much more practical then the expensive fold-away one.
