I'll post the rest some time when I get around to taking pics of it.

warning-the before pics may make you cringe. They do me.

I took quite a bit out from the before pics. 3 sets of fat quarters for which I have projects planned and some fabric that I will probably just sell or use for pillowcases or something. I have a whole bunch of other fat quarters too that I have elsewhere. I don't have enough room in any one area to store all of them. :oops:

more info on my blog which is in my signature.

Wow...so there is hope for my storage room!

Congrats! on a job well done, isn't it nice to be able to see what you have without having to dig through it?

Way to go, gale! You are on your way to a happy sewing stash. I'd be happy ever time I looked at those orderly pieces of fabric.

Love the organized pic the best! It's a lot of work but so well worth it. You will be so glad you spent that time doing it. Great job

WOW Job well done

It looks so neat. Can I rent you by the hour?

Can I come shoppping? Everything looks so nice & straightened. I keep my fabric in plastic boxes arranged by colors, gawdy's & 30's.

Wow, that looks so neat now!

sending you a pm. Great job on the organization!

Now it's gonna be a piece of cake finding the right fabrics when ever you need to!

It looks so pretty! You're ready to create! Or just pet it for for a while.

Good job. I'm learning so much from you all. Where did you find the comic book boards?

It reallly looks nice.

Very nice. Now you can quickly find what you want and spend more happy time sewing!

great job! ;-)

way cool all mine are in tubs right now

Hi Gale, It looks great. I went onto your blog, and it is nice to put a face with the name. Great blog!!!

Good job. Now you know what you have.

I just started organizing my fabric stash yesterday! Very satisfying... It feels good to bring some order to the chaos in my fabric closet.

Great job. I think a quilter should be able to see the fabric in
a stash so when we start a quilt we can see at a glance what
fabrics we want.

Its amazing how "boarding" the fabric looks like the stash has been cut in half at LEAST. I'm doing the same thing. It looked like a TON before, and now that I am organizing, it looks like I NEED to go out and buy some more...but I won't.

Sooo much better!

Fantastic job on the AFTER photos, lol!! You've been VERY busy!

Nice Job!!

Oh I like the idea of those dividers you are using. I have sooooo very much fabric I wouldn't know where to begin

I think it feels real good to be organized and be able to have what you need at your fingertips. To much precious time wasted digging and looking for something! I used the Coroplast boards and feel I have more room. Fabric is too beautiful to not be able to see it. You did a great job! Looks good!

Looks organized to me :o)

nice job.

Looks good.

You before pictures looks like my fabric. been wondeering how I was going to get organized and that does encourse me to try to do mine now. Faye Cassity

I bet that took awhile!

Wow, that looks amazing. Great job

I try to do that at least once a month, but it never, never stays done. hmmmmmmmmmmm, wish I could be that organized

Looks great. I don't have that much fabric, but I did organize around Christmas time. Now I have material to be "filed" back into it proper places. So starting another mess. What I need to do is take a week and organize all my photos, tut's, directions, patterns so that I can find what I'm looking for.

awesome job.....

Hey Gale, great job organizing. I just wrote you PM. I have 40+ large plastic totes that I need to organize. I sure could use some helpful suggestions ;-) Hugz

way to go
