Finally emptied a good size round woven hamper I had in college, used for a toy basket when kids were little and ended up in sewing room- sturdy and now hosting the scraps- at least until they get cut down. Feel like I am turning the corner on this redo of the quilting area.

Pamela, that looks like a great idea!
Yesterday, I re-organized my stash cupboard so that all my large pieces of fabric...anything over a metre...are on one shelf rather than mixed in with smaller pieces and I put all my WIPS on another shelf. It really helps me to see what needs doing. I found some things I'd forgotten about. I like that the big pieces are neatly seperate. I also bought another spool rack to finally get all my spools of thread organized. Now, if they'd just stay that way! I have one big drawer of scraps and i cannot get another piece shoved in there....that might be my next job or I might just leave it until I start a string quilt. Watson If have lots of strips, put in bin, Ready for sting quilts or log cabin, can be different sizes .Divide scraps and strips. |
I love those baskets, Teen. They could really help me tidy up the sewing room. Christina Cameli has a tutorial on them as well.

TY for the link, Teen!

Rob....In my new home I will have a guest room, an office, and now my own sewing room....however, I need a second guest bed for family visits... I'm having a Murphy bed designed for sewing room so I can close it up and use the backside as a design wall. Lol...whatever it takes to preserve my creative space I am doing....
Ooooh! I never thought about using the backside of a Murphy bed as a design wall-- That's a great idea, Teen. Rob |

Wow...you guys are hustling to get organized. Love your focus!! Most of my stuff is all packed up but that is not stopping me from pre-planning for my new sewing studio.. Today, I played with an idea on a blog in which you make a fabric basket for each color-way...I'm thinking FQ to 1/2yd scraps, which I have a lot packed up. So I made the first two color ways....gray and black... Super easy, quick and fun... I'm thinking it would be a good way to manage stash...if a basket runneth over, make something in that colorway. Not sure how disciplined I'll be but I figure it is worth a shot...plus, I think they'll look so cute on shelves.....Here are the baskets... Measures 10L X 6w X 6D...

Great Baskets and I loved the tute. I have bookmarked it so I don't forget where it is. Loved the different quilting and patterns she showed in the tutorial as well!
I love these super baskets |
Thank you, helou.... I love these little baskets and I'm having fun making them...
Instead of bookmarking the board link, try opening the link to the fabric basket tutorial blog and bookmarking that instead. That way you will always have it when you are ready. |
