What does your craft space look like?
I've taken over half the office with my craft supplies. One side of the room is devoted to shelving my collection of fabrics (photo attached) and another side for my sewing equipment and jewelry supplies.
Which tool or craft supply do you use the most?
My sewing machine and serger definitely get the most use!
What do you craft along to?
I'm most inspired by Project Runway. I'm always stunned by the beauty and creativity those designers can accomplish in such a short period of time.
