Thanks DJ for the charm storage idea.

My charms are really the only thing that I have organized. I have tower of containers (they come 2 in a package but you can add more containers). Every once in awhile I will sort some of the packages I get into these containers. I have a container for each color. When the containers get filled up then I sew. This does help when I am working on a project.

When I cut my 2.5 squares out for a swap I have a larger container that has 17 divided cubby holes I then as I cut sort them out so every square is different.

OKAY what I need is ideas of what to do with fabric that is 1/4 yard and larger. do you pile them up by color or by size. And where do you pile them up???? I am trying to use my stash and not go out shopping as often. Plus i have had many quilters give me their scraps. they go into a basket till I can cut if they are small pieces but some are 1/4 and larger.

feeling a litter overwhelmed
