Everyone should have an izy!!!!
4 Attachment(s)
My fabric stash has been in chaos for ages and needed some serious 'sorting'!! My special friend Izy has spent the last 3 days working her magic.......and I am thrilled with the results!!!! We have had such a fun time sorting scraps from yardage, crumbs from fat quarters and finding long forgotten UFO's!!!!!! Izy you are such an inspiration and I can't wait to get started making LOTS of scrap quilts!!!!!! Watch this space!!!!!

Nicely organized. Love the picture quilt on the wall.
|
I just have to re-organise my books then all my boxes can go back in my sewing room, then the fun can begin!!
|
If I had the extra cash I would send Izy a ticket to CA to help me with organizing my sewing room, stash etc! Oh heck, both of you could come and make a week of it.

Perhaps if you 'bribe' her with fabric??????;)

I suppose my 'Izy' was the removal of my gallbladder last August. I was home, and my fabric cabinet was close by calling my name. It took me a few days, but I organized it. I was able to nap in between. Nothing cleans out a house full of children quicker than a sick parent and fabric organization!!!!
What a nice friend you have in Izy! |
What a great friend! We all need an Izy!!!
|
thinking IZY really should come to California....speak at all the guilds.....get us organized.....

:thumbup:What a stash and what a terrific friend! Some folks make money (I mean, serious money!!) for organizing like that. Izy could turn her fun into profit. Not that she probably wants to...but I'm just sayin'.
|
I have an Izy but she is a dog...she rarely makes organizing anything easy! But I love her anyway.

Hey that may just be the new direction in life I am looking for since losing John. Over here we had a long running popular programme called...'How clean is your house' where a couple of ladies came in and got the house straight with lots of tips on keeping on top etc....maybe I need to make a 'How organised is your stash?' programme to help all quilters who have become overwhelmed with their stash get to grips! LOL :D :D :D

Nice job!!!!
|
Nice to have it all organized.
|
I want an Izzy. Where can I get her. LOL what a wonderful friend. I bet you two are having a great time.
|

Izy, you are truly a very special friend. Coventry UK is a lucky woman.
|
What a great friend you have to help you organize. Now that you can see what you have, I bet you can't wait to get started sewing some quilts.

Great job! |
I think I could use some Izy in my stash.. How do you feel about Chicago!?!
|
You are both so lucky to have each other to do this with! I absolutely HATE doing this kind of thing by myself, but LOVE doing it with someone else.
When I was getting ready to retire and had to clean out 7 years worth of books, conference materials and other junk, I just could not do it alone. So I had rotating interns come in, each for a couple of hours, just to talk to me while I went through the stuff and sorted. I also made them haul the bags of trash out! It was the only way I could have gotten it done. |
We could get her a rail pass once she gets to the states, then she can stop off and organize us all, 8-)
|
How nice to have such a wonderful friend!!! :) :) :) :)
