I'm trying hard to get my storage a bit more orgainzed so like items are together, and all the cut scraps are in the same spot.
Yesterday I was looking over some stuff in the section that was suppose to be cut up scraps, and realized I had two totes of backing fabric. A few weeks ago I was putting together backing with quilt tops and thinking I sure had a lot less backing than I thought . . . and I knew I'd bought backing for my sister's king size quilt. So I assuemed it must be the beige that I had 7 yards of . . . so I used that.
In one of the totes that I just found is the prefect matching blue for my sister's quilt. So now I've moved so those totes of backing are in the room with the rest of the yardage.
I also prewash all yardage as soon as it comes in the house. So I know all the yardage upstairs is prewashed and I don't have to wonder about it.
