I’m 95% done with my overhaul! I had to order a few more smaller containers and they won’t be here till Thursday (I guess stores sell out quickly after the holidays 🤪
.
1: I’ve been through my collections 7 times and I’m happy with the end results of keepers, and did add several more to my sell box.
2: I have 3 very large totes of fabric for donation to a local Church that does charity quilting.
3: Next is to empty the last cabinet and post them for free on Craigslist, there are 3.
4: I did get all my Asian Fabrics in one tote, all my One Block Wonder fabrics in another and all others are sorted by Batiks, Solids, Blenders and Assorted and then sub sorted by yardage, half yards, and fat quarters and those loosely sorted by colors. All containers are clear and marked with a label on the outside as to the contents.
5: Once I have that all done I’m going to have some painting done and the lighting changed out.
I have posted the containers I used in case anyone else is interested in using this method.
1: First & Second pic is the under bed tote, these hold 220 Fat Quarters or 106 Half Yard cuts.
2: Third pic is the smaller container that can hold 53 1 yard cuts. I use these for 1-3 yard cuts and find them perfect.
So far I have 8 smaller containers and 23 of the larger containers, considering I started this a month ago I’m pretty pleased with the progress.
