Every quilter I know has a problem finding things. I think it is because we have a habit of finding too many things to keep around, things we may need some day or that perfect piece of fabric that asked to come home with us. Isn't that part of what makes us who we are? Who has time to stay organized, anyway?

Don't know about yours, but it is very frustrating to try to keep mine organized. I get feeling "cocky" I guess when I get it straight for more than a week or so. Then it takes forever to get it back where I don't have to dig. I prefer to believe that is part of being a quilter, rather than I am totally unorganized. Please don't tell me all the rest of you keep things in order. If anyone needs an excuse, there is a positive to all of this. By "digging" I ocassionally find fabric that I forgot I had, and when I am lucky, it is just what I needed. :D

Let's just call it ORGZ, makes as much sense as lol or rofl, what do you think? That would make it a 4 letter word in every way. :?:

i have never made a Yellow Brick Road but have made about 5 Turning Twenty quilts - I'm now in the process of making one for a dear friend marrying a wonderful woman. Her husban passed away 7 yrs ago, his wife last year, cancer... I'm taking 16 fat quarters - representing their five children, their late spouses, God, their 'clean slate' of a new marriage and then three more representing each of their interests. I cannot wait to get it done - I have begun cutting the pieces already!!
