I absolutely loved this video. The interaction between Jeanette and Katrina was fabulous, I loved watching it! :-)

This video was an absolute joy to watch. You had me laughing out loud! My sewing room is our dining room. My husband recently asked when we could actually use the room for eating (silly man!) I keep separate reels of thread in small plastic bags with a matching full bobbin - and, yes, I keep my threads colour-coded in plastic boxes. Some of my fabrics are so lovely I can’t bring myself to use them! I’m surely not alone in this!!

It’s a sickness! I have so many collections - squares, strips … but I can’t bear to use them! They are just too precious to use for just anything!

@tracymassey4764. I use to think like you about my special fabrics. Then I said to myself ( if I do t use this Beautiful fabic someone else will use it when I leave this earth.) Well that's not going to happen 😂😂😂. I love using my special fabrics now..❤🧵❤

So much fun! The two of you together must make a wonderful day at your shop!

This video was soooo much fun! Useful information, but getting to "hang out" with you both was the real treat!

What a fun and joyful video to watch. These two are such fun together would love to see them doing a sewing project together.

I watch a lot of US quilting videos, but it's so refreshing to hear British English here. I live in the Netherlands btw.

Oh my gosh. You two are hilarious. I totally enjoyed this video. You made me laugh but also gave me great tips for storage. I’m right in the middle of getting my sewing room organized. Thank you.

You two are an absolute hoot. It amazes me the capacity of the brain. Quilters can remember the details of every scrap of fabric in their stash. Tell me this. - Do you ever forget where you put something in your sewing space?

Had fun and some new storage ideas. Thanks ladies. Love your channel.

You’re adorable, and I love your tips. Now I’m looking forward to see how Katrina makes her postcards and how Jeannette uses those little pieces of scraps. I encourage you to make future videos, please 🙏🏼. Thank you so much. I enjoy this time with you.

Thanks for the organizing ideas!

What lovely ladies! Fun to watch. I recently went to the studio about my sewing machine , the young lady who helped me was so nice and helpful. Lovely, friendly and very helpful . Many thanks! ,

I enjoyed this show, we are all so different, the perfectionist and the casual person~~

Y’all are so cute and so very funny! Love all of the suggestions for organizing! ❤❤

You 2 are HILARIOUS!!! 💗💕💗😂😂😂😂😂

You guys make a great team! Some fun ideas here!

Definitely!

You two ladies are such a breath of fresh air. Watching this really cheered me up. I have just reclaimed my loft sewing room and need storage ideas. Especially as I don’t have any full height walls. Thank you

I really enjoyed watching your fun, comedy act. You both should do it again. The storage tips were great. Thanks for making me laugh 😂.

Thanks so much for pure fabric joy 😊

I use project boxes too - so I can chose what I want to do today and just pull out the relevant box.

Storage envy - I just love it😂

I love you girls. You make me miss my sewing gals

👏👏👏 Organized, scruffy around the edges, madness, envy, overspill, double trouble… 😝🤣🤣 This was absolutely wonderful! I will say I love all of y’all’s ideas🤔 y’all are just the greatest!! Thanxabunch❤️😀

Oh Katrina, you did make me laugh 😂

Both are great ways!🙏

This video made me laugh out loud. Thank you ladies I really enjoyed it. ❤

Thanks ladies you made me feel so much better about my scraps and how I can improve on tidying them up. Mary

So reassuring to see others with fabric obsession! 😂

I loved this video. Thanks for sharing 😊

Please do a video on zips. I need major help with those

Hello! Make sure to subscribe, and we will be making a video soon!

Quilting cotton fabrics are a good addiction!

I use tins, baskets, rattan picnic baskets, whatever my DH would bring home from the auction to keep my bits, buttons, zips etc in. You two are so enjoyable as well as informative to watch! Thanks

This vid made me howl with laughter What you girls failed to mention is the mandatory extra bedroom (sun facing to let in the natural light) with a wall of shelving to accommodate all those awesome storage boxes. Pleased these are available on line, my only fear is I would buy loads!!! I would only add that you missed using the DYMO Label Maker for identifying all those boxes & tins easily. Have fun and thanks for this informative clip!

I thoroughly enjoyed this informative video from these two knowledgeable ladies. I will try some of these storage ideas.

Very entertaining to watch.

Thank you ladies, I learned so much..

Good ideas ladies . I find having my fabric organised actually saves me time.

This was a delight. Gave me much needed smiles and laughter. I have to say I am not as organized as either of you dear ladies, but I do store some items like both of you. Please do more videos like this, I think it is my favorite yet.

I also learnt lovely ideas. Thank you ladies

That was so much fun to watch!

I was raised by a true dressmaker/tailor, yet never overcame my zip-o-phobia. I decided that my “hand set” zippers were an artistic statement, rather than a fear of zips!

Great ideas...you two are a hoot...

Wonderful tutorial 🤩🤩🤩

What a fun video!Regarding using bits to make enough fabric for a mini-charm... Most of the antique and vintage family quilts i have inherited have a "pieced piece" in them. To honor those ancestors, i put a pieced piece somewhere in my quilts.

I love working with small pieces!!

Lovely thank you ❤

Y’all have given me great ideas for scrap storage! Thank you!

I was ooing and arrring . Fabulous just thoroughly enjoyed seeing you both and your love of fabric and keeping it treasured. I’ve only just found you and am binge watching as a new sewist that’s fallen down this glorious rabbit hole 😍👏🏼😂 new subbie xxx🎉

Hi Lisa! Welcome to our channel - hopefully we continue to inspire your new venture

You gal’s made my whole week😊

Thank you both. I so enjoyed having my tea time with you lovely ladies. I'm going to apply some of your digestion's in my sewing room as well. This was fun.🎉😂❤

You ladies are a joy...and learned a lot ❤

What a delight this video is with great ideas for storage.

Loved this!

Love this video, great tips and suggestions but more so funny to watch the pair of you….more please! ❤❤❤

I love that you save the ribbons that are tied around precuts. I do too. I found an old garden rake with a broken handle, screwed it to the wall in my sewing room. Whenever I get a ribbon, cute selvage, or a bit of lace , I hang it from the tines.

Oh! what a great video ladies it made me laugh and brightened up the end of my day . Thank you for all your tips on storage (must do my fabric storage!) mine just sit in a drawer but no more ! what a treat you gave us xx

Fantastic video ladies😂. Absolutely love it 🎉

You are adorable,and your storage tips are great. Thank you for sharing.

This brightened my day, I am in the process of reorganizing my sewing room. Some good ideas and some I do the same. You are very good together.

Great fun and great ideas!! I am from Derby, Kansas! Happy New Year ladies!!

This was such a fun and informative video. I enjoyed seeing both of you together going through your fabrics, etc. Thanks so much for sharing……………..

Love your different style. Lovely interactive video. Subscribed!

You ladies were so cute to watch! Got some really good ideas! I really need to get my scraps in better order! ❤

This was so much fun..thank you both. I did have a good laugh with you… I too struggle to use my favourite fabrics…❤️. Thanks again…Dottie x

You girls would go crazy with all the scraps I’ve saved : including selvages. I’ve been making the 31/2 “ squares for color wash But not even a dent in the scraps. I’d have a ball with you both. Thanks for the laughs 😂

You’re Lovely both Jeanette and Katrina. 🥰 I have boxes from IKEA for my fat quarters, charms, jellies and by colors. Biscuits boxes for little scraps, selvedges… and almost the same little boxes for bobbins and threads… in my sewing studio at home! I love wagging your you tube channel Katrina from France. Thank you for your tips and smiles. It’s always a great pleasure watching you 🤗

You ladies are so funny. I enjoyed this video. You made me look at my own storage in my sewing room too. Oh, I do have a few of your storage boxes and use them. I just need more 😃

You two girls are such a hoot together! I chuckled so many times while watching this video. Only Quilter's would understand. May I ask where in the UK you're from. Your accent sounds a bit different from what I'm used to hearing when I listen to people from the UK.

That was fun. I enjoyed this video. I can see my storage system needs a much needed revamp! I'm only half way there!!!!

These ladies are delightful!! I love, love the accents! What a wonderful paring of talent, skills & ideas. I would love to take them home & keep them. Shawn-United States.

BRILLIANTLY done ✅😊

Katrina, I'm glad I'm not the only one that doesn't want to use that beautiful fabric. Ladies, thanks for sharing.

Thank you for an informative, creative video of storage options. I want to be neat, but am more "organized chaos".

Loved this video. Thanks ladies. Fairly newish to sewing and didn’t even think about aurifil or gutterman bobbins. I have stored mine all in the same bobbin ring! Could explain some issues with some sewing! Love the idea of cutting into squares ready for some scrappy projects. Thank you 😊

Great ideas.

What fabulous ideas! Im going to think about the thread ones right away! Could we have a tutorial on that wee zippered pouch soon? Thanks for all the great content!

Loved this. I have recently set up a sewing space and have loved organising things but would have loved a sewing friend to share ideas with. My 8yo grandson thinks it's an amazing space but not quite the same.

This was enjoyable and fascinating. But I'm trying to bring less new plastic into the house so I felt a bit conflicted. I too have tins and also reuse shoeboxes but it's not always ideal.

from Bangladesh, love you both.

To keep my bobbins from unraveling, I place a baby's ponytail holder around the bobbin before storing in the bobbin box.

Loved this video. You are 100% correct looking at someone else’s fabric is so much more fun. I like superior threads bottom line 60 wt polyester thread for EPP, it’s very strong but also very fine so my stitches disappear.

I save the selvages and other too narrow pieces to tie up my tomato and pepper plants. Of course i do not use red pieces for the tomato plants as I then think that i have one ready to pick! Loved the video.

Good video

Also like the ideas but where did you get the larger boxes that have the dividers in?

Love it! ❤👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😉🤣❤️

How do you store bigger pieces of fabric?Enjoyed the video.

Where can I find the box for the charm size?

Where can I buy the large storage boxes with dividers and lids,the ones you used to store fat quarter sized pieces? Thanks.
