All my closets are full. Not even a drop of sunlight can get in there.

Personally, I'd rather live without fabric than without sunshine. :shock: :lol: My studio is heaven on earth, bright, open, two walls of windows, no curtains or closets, and so very full of inspiration and joy. I cannot imagine sewing in a cave when I can play in a garden instead! :D Perhaps it's the northern latitude, but my fabrics have never shown any signs of fading and some are over 40 years old.

I store my fabric in clean "showbox" size plastic containiers but they are behing closed doors.

...nope, I have my fabric stored away from light..I've seen what natural light can do to fabric and it isn't pretty (no grin there).

I occaionally think of it in passing but the part of my brain that worries is already overloaded so I ignore the problem. As a world class worrier and insomniac I'd rather worry about asteroids falling from the sky or whether black mold is blooming in the crawl space under my house or even the possibility of cell phones causing cancer. Seriously, I am a worry wart but I can only worry about so many things!

Another reason to use up that stash and buy what you need, when you need it. I always have some left over - but buying to just store it is not such a wise thing in my opinion. - Doesn't it seem that whenever you start something special you never have what you need no matter how much fabric you have?

We bought those kind of windows when we replaced ours
several years ago. It was only a few dollars more for each window, and nothing fades, furniture, carpet, fabric, curtains It is well worth it. But obviously everybody can't replace their windows (we have an old house, so it was an easy decision.. we needed new ones). Good comment, tho in case anybody' plans to do that in the future. |
