The rest of the drawers will hold my material once I get it folded to fit the drawers. I have about 5 of the drawers filled now. I am working on a Dear Jane quilt right now with the group on the forum and I think this idea will really help speed up the process of picking the color for each of the blocks. Will be really neat to just pull out a drawer and see a selection instead of digging though the storage bins I have had to keep my material in for the past 40 years.
Wow so great, gives me an idea....I have a old buffet or dresser it is and could do this as well with my FQ and small pcs. of mtl. Would not take up room on my book shelves either..........could use the top of it too for layout, thanks and yours is so great......just to open the drawer and there is what u need
