I've joined the club to get organized with my fabric. I'm hoping this helps me remember to shop my stash instead of going to buy more!! I used "Golden Age" sized comic book boards. I used quilting straight pins to hold them together, but after reading this thread, I'm going to go get some dollar tree bobby pins and use that instead.

The most I have on one board is about 4 yards. The least is a fat-quarter (folded in half and then wrapping it around the board (the ends barely overlap). I was thinking of cutting some in half and having smaller boards for the fat quarters, but I would prefer to have them all the same size and organized by color, so I'm going to try this approach first.

For smaller than FQ, I will use clear shoebox plastic totes per color.

I'm going to store the mini-bolts in large plastic bins .. so they don't get dusty, faded, or covered in cat hair when kitty figures out they would make a comfy bed.

Now I'm waiting on more boards so I can finish organizing my stash!

I'm sure it's the OCD talking, but it does make me so happy to see them all lined up by color in such a beautifully organized fashion.
