Well, there is that wonderful acronym PIGS (Projects In Grocery Bags) that you can use instead of WIPs and UFOs!
|
One has to do what they need to do to keep things organized! I got tired of not being able to find fabrics or instructions to make a project and then spending hours looking - that was keeping me from accomplishing anything. Now that I put my projects in an acid free container I don't have to look far to start or continue a project. Works for me!

I am a plastice bin lady myself. But I am now out of plastic bins so its either no more new projects till I finish some or resort to bags.

You can never have too many bags, tote or otherwise.
Signed - another Bag Lady |
Bags, bags, everywhere! How can anyone complain?? They are name brand (supermarket, Walmart etc) 2 bags from the same store equal a set of matching luggage!! When it gets out of control, I end up with trash bags!!
|
I am a pile of bags lady. this pile has UFO's, this pile has baby quilts, this pile has special colors, that pile has requests and another has a pp quilt in plastic bags. I think I like the shoebox idea, They would stack easier than the bags. lol
|
I'm a modern clear tote lady, and hide new fabric under the bed. It may be time for a support group for me.:D
|
I have bags for fabric, Art bins, Iris totes, and even totes for projects. I just need to finish things, now that I'm retired and supposed to have time.
|
Sadly I'm both. I have some in bags and some in boxes and they are scattered. Some are by my sewing machine, some on the dining room tqable and some in my bed room, I keep looking at them thinking I need to be more organized but that might be to scarry.
