retro- You must come and help me!! i love the way you organized your stash. What did you use for the charm squares? Are they deep bins ? I need containers that you can see the fabric and not hide it.

You're all so kind. It was difficult at first and I didn't think I had much stash either but it is so much more fun now that I can see everything. I still have one lonesome bin that's a mess but I let the girls I teach dig through it so I may just leave it as is.
Donna, I found a 4 tier bin set at Target a while back when they were on sale....the first 2 drawers together are roughly the same size as each of the bottom drawers. I keep my ziplocks, freezer paper, heat 'n bond in the bottom drawer because there is plenty of length to it and it's pretty deep. If I want to go searching for something I can easily take out the drawer and put it on my ironing board to keep from bending over.

Well you inspired me! I went out and bought some closet organizers, cleaned a side in my tiny closet and sorted my tiny stash. I didn't include my Christmas fabrics, I left them in a bin (I seem to have more of those than anything else). But I'm pleased with the results and must now convince my husband that I need more stash! Thanks for the motivation.

I have UFO's on hangers beside the planned projects, you can just barely see them in the above photos. Next is my shoe organizer without any shoes.

I use to have that dream job when I worked in a quilt store several years ago. I got to play and fondle the fabrics all day long!!! :)
