    These are pictures of before my little boards, and after. The process is slow but so worth the time and effort. Three of the pictures show I have not organized my things as of yet. My husband is such a sweetie. He cut all my boards for me. The larger pieces of fabric that are 2-9 yards are on the larger boards.He cut the small ones for 1 yard and less, to include fat 1/4's. He is in the process of installing recessed cans in my quilt room ceiling so I will have lots of light!!! He also made me a "big board" for my ironing board. All of my furniture is from Craigs list, except the shelf of all fabrics & books on the wall.

    I have been so inspired by the people that were kind enough to share how they did their "little boards" for little bolts. I just love how it is coming along. Just a few more days and I'll be done!!! Yippie!!! I tend to be horribly unorganized so this is a dream come true.
