When I started making quilts I had to 'teach' the photographer how to handle them. From there I learned to love his power air gun to remove stray threads, and he offered me a free session in return for sewing a large black velvet backdrop for him. He now has his 'favorite' quilts and blocks, as well as knowing to fold tops with the seams on the outside.

The long boxes I use to hold the threads and various sewing supplies while I work on a particular project. The opening is even large enough for my small piecing projects. Nothing dissapears! I often use the smaller boutique tissue boxes for a small catch-all for my threads and scraps as I trim in either quilting or garment construction. It all helps to keep the sewing area neat and projects go more smoothly....they are pretty too!!
