pattern storage by DKiely33
What is the best way to store patterns that have already been used, cut and will be used again? I'm going to be setting up a little sewing area and would like to know how to set it up correctly from the start. Would an art store be useful for storage options? Thanks, :) Dee

I'll bet you've not heard this sewing machine problem before by Micki
