I have been spending time in my little fabric corner working
on refolding fabric. Some of the fabric was on foam core boards,
and some was on full size comic board.

What was on foam core was either 1/4 yard, F8 or FQ in size, and
MOST of what was on the comic boards was 1/2 yard or more cuts.

So I pulled ALL that fabric off those boards and refolded it to fit on
the boards I declared for those sizes. I am getting down to the last
little bit that was out in "open" (unboxed or packed up). Next I will
move back to the bins of fabric to start working on them again.

But I REALLY REALLY REALLY need more shelves for my units, or I
won't be able to fold anymore fabric for the shelves.

Here are some pictures of what I have been working on lately.


I USED to have my bolts of fabric on this section, but I moved them
over to the unit that sits next to the smaller unit, and took the shelves
from that unit to add to this section (confused yet? LOL).

This is the above mention "little bit" that I pulled from the boards for
refolding.

Now here is the relocated bolts of fabric along with all the 1/2 cut
comic boards (used 13"-35" cuts of fabric).

Fabric isn't the ONLY thing I collect. Since I ran out of shelves to
add to my units I pulled out the glass shelves that I had ordered
by mistake. Until I can get more of the heavier solid shelves, decided
to display some of my "glass" collection at least the pieces that is
NOT boxed away.

THe amber glass is my FIRST and OLDEST collection. I started
collecting it when I was 15 years old and bought a set of oil lamps
from my best friend (more like a sister) when she was getting ready
to move out of state.

The blue "cobalt" glass is my newest collection of glass, and I only
started collecting it because my hubs surprised me one year for with
a Valentine's gift that I NEVER in my wildest dreams would have ever
would get. That gift was the BLUE PYREX bake ware. He seen a piece
being used on a show, and commented on what it was. I replied, oh
that blue baking dish? that is the blue pyrex. You can't find it anymore
wish I would have bought it when it was still available.

About 8-9 months later there was a delivery from UPS and my hubs
said "that will be for you" Low an behold it was 2 full sets of blue Pyrex.
Now anytime I find anything with cobalt blue glass I get it too.
