Heavens to Betsy no! Organizing the fabric is way too much fun- why would i let someone else do it?

I think it would be a losing battle. I no sooner have my stash all nice and neat when I start looking for something for a new project and I'm like a bull in a china shop.

Honestly I wish I could be shocked but the truth is I have hired my children time to time.Ha Ha Ha

I will post a picture of my ruler wall. Just completed it not all my rulers are on the wall still finding more every day. That was my first organizational of my studio. Today I am working on the sewing table. Can't sew because the Diamond is under so much. I took 30 minutes looking what my plan of attach should be there is so much it is truly over whelming.

I would think it would have to be done by another quilter, who at least knows how to do it. I think a non-quilter would just cause tons of problems, just my 2 cents worth. If I could get someone to organize mine, I would in a heartbeat so I agree with ya :)

If you figure out a way to organzie your fabrics or can get help let me know. I try to put them by color and I have folded them but still a mess. HELP!

Thank you everyone!
I am in Dutchess County NY in Poughkeepsie. So if anyone wants to come that is where I am lolol
I have my fabric "organized" so to speak as far as color or theme (for the most part) but I don't have it folded or wrapped or anything where I can easily see it. I need to have better accessibility to the fabric and I do not mind anyone helping with it. I will find it cause I would help I just get stuck :(
PS I could use that maid too lol

I had a friend come and help me - she was able to really make the hard choices and we donated a bunch of stuff - Got all material sorted by color or project. Good luck

If you didn't live 3,000 miles away, I would volunteer! I just helped a friend pull colors from her stash for a bunch of projects she wants to start. Then we spent the rest of the day organizing it. We spent a full day, and I got some free fabric for my stash!
