This is what I've been doing for the last few days. Some one made a posting about cleaning up their room and had a video on how to fold fabric... Well, dont get me started ...

Tomorrow, I'll be making a list of all my UFO's, not too many thank goodness and three new items I want to start.

The day after, the gentlemen in the white coats will be coming to carry me away hah hah

Looks great. So much easier to find and start a new project when you can see what you have!!!

BKinCO 01-07-2010 04:35 PM

Well, it looks awesome AND I'm jealous :)

NorBanaquilts 01-07-2010 04:35 PM

If I change the name of my PDA back to "MadQuilter's Asylum" you could come over.

Blue Bell 01-07-2010 04:58 PM

Very neat. You have great organization skills. Can you come and help me?

bebe 01-07-2010 05:01 PM

great job lots of pretties in there :thumbup:

Pats8e8 01-07-2010 07:54 PM

Gee, you mean you're not supposed to put your fabric in plastic bins stored in the barn? Whatever will I do? Honestly though, I bought an Accuquilt and hope to take a lot of those bins down and start cutting strips and squares and even drunkards path pieces.

dglvr 01-07-2010 08:51 PM

That looks really great!

katier825 01-08-2010 02:16 AM

WOW! I need to shop at your "store"! Looks great! That should inspire you for new projects too!

Sheree from Chicago 01-08-2010 02:19 AM

Great job! Isn't it nice to be all organized? Now to just sit and ponder all the possibilities!!!!!!!!!

rootyr 01-08-2010 02:50 AM

Very nice!

Bevanger 01-08-2010 05:31 AM

looking good :thumbup:

Elisabrat 01-08-2010 05:35 AM

oh I am envious.. blenders! I never buy blenders.. when I get to shop I am so drawn to the feature fabrics I forget to stop for the plain ones to make the features pop out. I would never leave my sewing room with that collection. And its so neat! anyone touches it they could lose a finger! chomp!

Piedmont Quilter 01-08-2010 05:38 AM

My! How busy you've been. It looks great. Can't wait to see the UFOs you finish now that you're organized.

MNQuilter 01-08-2010 06:07 AM

So pretty! If I had all that wonderful fabric, I'd never leave my sewing room!

grammy Dwynn 01-08-2010 06:13 AM

one of these days I should clean my room as nice as yours, but for some reason the projects keep piling up .... so I sew and sew when I should clean and organize. :(

Barb_MO 01-08-2010 06:21 AM

You have done a great job of organizing you fabrics

sandpat 01-08-2010 06:24 AM

Well...I'm just plain jealous...of your organization, of your room and of course of your fabric!!

DeniseB 01-08-2010 07:20 AM

Wow, it all looks great. you have inspired me. this weekend i think i'll start on my stash. got to find that video again .

thanks again.

RJ 01-08-2010 07:39 AM

I thought part of starting a quilt is digging thru endless piles of fabric looking for the *perfect* one to use that "I know I already have" LOL LOL

Candace 01-08-2010 07:49 AM

We've got those same Ikea drawers. My daughter has them under her desk. I would love open shelving like yours but the light in my sewing room may damage the fabrics. So, I'm on the hunt for wall hung shelving with doors.

Ditter43 01-08-2010 08:07 AM

Oh you bad girl....make me feel like I should get busy. I have my "stuff" spread through two rooms. I have been slowly moving everything back into my origional sewing room, but working on my present project has taken all my time :oops: Soon....I will do it....soon , sigh

Looks tooooo clean and neat to be a sewing room! :-) I get some of my best ideas as I stumble thru my stash, looking for that "perfect" fabric.

thequilterslink 01-08-2010 11:44 AM

pal 01-08-2010 11:55 AM

Your room looks so beautiful. I find that after I clean I don't want to mess it up, so I don't go in the room.......so I figured out that that is why I don't clean.
That sounds right, right???

Quiltin'Lady 01-08-2010 11:58 AM

Wonderful organizing! I, too, got bit by the "folding" bug and I have to admit that it was a pain in the process, but the outcome is soooo nice! :thumbup: :thumbup:

LOVE all your "rainbow" fabrics, too! Any idea what you'll do with them? I'm still collecting mine in anticipation of finding just the "perfect" pattern....

Nice job! :)

*QuilterWannabee* 01-08-2010 01:59 PM

Oh so neat and tidy, good for you! : ) Isn't it nice to look at when it's all in order?

paintedquilt 01-08-2010 02:55 PM

Oklahoma Suzie 01-08-2010 03:01 PM

kat112000 01-09-2010 07:04 AM

WOW, great job! You can come over to my house and organize anytime you are bored!!!

gloria farmer 01-09-2010 07:23 AM

Granny B 01-10-2010 01:42 PM

I think you just put me to shame. You're so neat.

Harmony 01-10-2010 01:56 PM

I'm so jealous! It's so darned organized! Wish I'd get bitten by that bug!

sewNso 01-10-2010 03:26 PM

you know, some one could make a lot of money off us quilters, just organizing our sewing rooms. do you think we could afford it?

craftiladi 01-13-2010 06:47 AM

All your hard work looks wonderful....I am a anal organizer and I am lovin what you did. So neat & tidy.
Great job!!!
