    I go to Joanns and pick up their empty cardboard bolts that they throw away. Then cut them down into 4 pieces with kitchen scissors that I get at the Dollar Tree. Then I cut some of them down even more for the smaller pieces but not yet fat quarter size.

    Looks great!!!

    The plastic tubs may not look so nice, but if you have a water leak, like I did on Wednesday, the plastic tubs would be a life saver!! Am I going to move all my fabrics into tubs again, no! But I would have been better off.

    I'm also interested in those pumpkins on your avatar -- whether they are crocheted or fabric and is it possible to get your pattern? They are so colorful!
