Re-organizing stash & finding fabric I didn't know I had!
#1
I've been on a roll with re-organizing in my house (which is SEW unlike me!), and recently pulled all my fabric from my shelves in the sewing room that were just piled on top of each other. I hung hanging baskets, and organized by color (at least to the best of my ability!). Still a work in progress, of course. :roll: Some of you organizing gurus will probably shriek at my attempt! ha ha...
I am amazed with exactly how much fabric I have, and can't get over that some of it looks totally new to me. I'm finding myself pleasantly saying "WHERE did I get this from???". It's like it's Christmas all over again. ha ha Also finding I have WAY too much muslin (guess I just kept buying it).
This re-organizing is a great way to make me appreciate what's in my stash, plus it kinda gave me a bit of a guilt trip seeing just how much I have. Hopefully the time it is taking to do will enable to make quilting a heck of a lot easier.

Thanks! I think it will make me a more-efficient quilter. :) Any excuse to get me into my sewing room!!
BTW, I think I should have posted this in the Pictures section, but I can't figure out how to move it. :( Me baaad....

I know what your saying, it is great like finding a treasure, I found a piece of material , for a quilt I started. I went to every store here and the next town for 2 weeks and could not find. A month later in cleaning my sewing room and material. Happy dance. I found the material.
