I spent last night and today cutting and wrapping my cuts of fabrics collected over the last two years. They filled two of the buckets and I really didn't know until now, just what I had. Of course the fabric I'm currently using for my Farmer's Wife Sampler isn't in here. :) I'm very happy with the results. Thank you.

I thought of using some boards but I am not sure what to ask for and where to buy it? Can you tell me the name of the stuff you cut for your boards and where you bought it? Thanks.

I should really do this. I have a bunch of corrugated plastic "Yard Sale" signs that we never ended up using. They need a new life. lol

Was so tickled to save all that money and have more for fabric organizations. W
I like the idea of the dollar tree form board, I may try this. Heck, I like all these ideas. I would love to do it!
