LMAO!!!! Sounds like you need a couple more days at the cabin. :thumbup:

sounds good to me except I'd be wanting to go back to Marshalls and I have so much fabric now that I'm tripping over it. I need to sew like a mad woman for a year or so and get rid of some of it.

I may have to rethink this and tweek it, but it is starting to work better. I am always amazed I can keep my lab space pristine and organized (down to labeling the cabinet and shelf something is located on) but my desk and house is a disaster. My mother-in-law swears by ziplocks and I've seen her cut, store and organize multiple quilts at a time. I figure she's been at it over 80 years so I should learn from the pro.

I hope this helps.

LOL, I USE ziploks all the time--somehow I can even manage to loose them. Methinks I need to organize a little more.
