Oh girl I feel your pain, I'm in the process of destashing. Sewing my fingers to the bone. I want more up to date fabric but have made myself a promise to only buy what I need, you know backings, binding. Your stash looks great! I think you've made room for some more lovelys!

Great job! Isn't it nice to be able to see what you actually have, and to be able to find it when you want to!

It looks great!!

My German Exchange student, after a discussion of why someone is called an Alcoholic or a Shopaholic turned to me and laughed and called me a Fabriholic! This was 4 years ago! I have collected several hundred yards since then.

I got the empty bolts from Walmart because they just throw them :) so check your store near you! I saw those plastic boards but thought it would cost me a fortune to do it so then I was thinking about bolts from walmart and called them and it worked out for me!!

I stopped at Jo Ann's one day to pick up some solides to go with my baby fabric and I asked the gal what they did with the empty bolts. she said they throw them why? I said can you throw hem my way. she said how many do you want. I said whatever you got. I got a large garbage bag full. One day I sat down and dut them into 4 pieces same size and now have a laundry basket full waiting for me to wrap my fabric on them. Am going to put in bookcases and hang an heavy clear vinyl or heavy clear shower curtain in front to keep dust off. Then I can still see what I have.
