LOL, know the feeling all too well. Stacks of FQs on my shelves for counted fabrics for 3 swaps on different sign up sites of varying cut sizes & each marked with a yellow post-it. All was well until a week later I discovered the post-its didn't stick well. Glad that I had already cut & packaged them so that I don't send dups in the next swaps & could mark FQ stacks again. I use a 10 drawer tall dresser to color code & keep my FQs. I keep yardage cloth in fabric color coded tubs for quick reference & it is a hassle to move them around when I need to get something out or put something away! I finally gave up & cleared a wall to keep site of my rulers. They like to hide under fabric. Down to my last ripper unless I find one of the other 3! Gotta be here somewhere. I learned not to keep my rubbish box under my table, found an expensive ruler in there once. Clean up this place & I'll never find a thing. Yes, indeed, I know how you feel!
