I am now trying to re-organize and it is such a mess. I have found fabrics I didn't even remember purchasing. That has not happened to anyone here, I know...right? It is like Christmas with each shelf.
Now I know why I am "poor" in other areas, I am rich in fabrics. What a joy!!!!

After doing this last winter, I realize I probably need to go through and sort every year or so, just to remind myself of what I have on hand.
I used to think I was turning into a hoarder until I started reading about making art quilts and how you need the "widest palette possible"

Great storage space. I've gone to IKEA & brought the catalog home to drool over. I also would like to have the Billy cabinets w/doors. Do they hold the weight of fabric well? That's what is holding me back, I didn't want bowed shelves!!

My goodness - it looks like a store - so organized! A question: Do you put any smaller pieces inside your neatly folded outer piece? I have a tendency to keep most small scraps of every print. I do use small pieces. In fact, I just used strips that were 3/8" wide to fuse triangles for the current fireworks quilt pattern.

I definitely save small pieces, too. If you look in the last pix, you can barely see on top of the shelf where I have plastic bins - marked with lights, mediums, darks, and also fqs by colors, too. I am a fabric freak and proud of it!!! Thanks .

I can't take pictures of mine. It's stashed all over the house. Plastic totes under the cutting table, under the leaves of the sewing table, 3 drawer chest in the sewing room, baskets of scraps, in a trunk in the living room, in my GGF's hutch in the entryway, 2 tubs in the linen closet batting in space bags because I got tired of them falling on my head, and craft supplies in a buffet in the bedroom. If my DH only knew!!!!! I'd be in trouble!
