I love the way you used the (matching) baskets to store your smaller pieces in front of each shelf. Very good use of space still allowing you to see what is behind.
Really if your going to sell some you should do it on Ebay fabric sell good on ebay!!
I'm so jealous

Jan,
You're so right...it is out of control. I'm ashamed to admit it, but this is not all of it by a long shot. This doesn't include any of my flannels, home dec fabrics, Thimbleberries collections or Civil War and 30's repros. Having to organize it all was just the thing to make me realize that I simply have way too much. I'm going to be having a heck of a garage sale in May, and I will be making lots of quilters very happy, I think. It's better than many addictions, but I am taking this pretty seriously. :-)

If I had that stash I wouldn't want to mess it up....haha

oh boy I would never want to leave, so many fabric choices right there waiting for you. Quilters heaven for sure. Great job on the organization. I absolutely love it!! DH want's to know how high the cabinet/shelving is..he knows I am envious

OMG - I thought I was bad! I see a penchant for pink and purple, I think. This will require more study. And when we are this bad... we find a way to organize. Your little baskets would make me nuts, however. Enjoy it and use it like crazy!
