    I pretty much sort like Jim's Gem -- however, she sounds a lot more organized than me! :lol: :lol:

    I wish my stash was large enough to really have to worry about it! But...what I do have...I just sort into color groups.

    My older fabrics are by catagories. I have one box that is all animals. If it shows cats, dogs, or horses that is the box it gets. One box is all Christmas. Another Fall, and Halloween. The newer ones that I bought last year, are by color. Green, tan, brown together, and blue, red, purple together.

    Right now, no system at all.

    I've been collecting birds, so I'm thinking of keeping those all together...

    I personally sort by background colors, but it all depends on what works for you.

    I do have all my flannels together and another drawer for Christmas fabrics.
