Seriously wondering this. I am cleaning out stuff because we just don't have room to keep things we don't use/need.
I'm having a hard time parting with some fabric but at the same time I'm wondering if it's going to be any good when I finally have the time to get to it. I'm thinking that will be in 13 years or so when my little one turns 18! :?
Thoughts?

I have everything stored in one of those bags you use the vacume to suck all the air out and it makes it smaller. Then I have them in a drawer so they don't get light. The bags aren't too exspensive at walmart. Thats what I would do if I had material that old. My opinion, hope I gave you an idea.

Did I ever tell you about the box my mom sent me?
She had found it in my closet at the home I grew up in.
As near as I can remember ... the fabric had been in that cardboard box for 25 years! - - and, it is STILL in that box and is living quite well, until I can figure out what to do with it!
