I have a shelf in the walk in closet of the master bedroom that runs the length of the wall (about 10 to 12 feet). When I get tired (it does happen) of piecing and sewing, I cut, label and place the pieces in zip lock bags, put in a plastic tote or storage tub found at Dollar General. I include a copy of the pattern as well as the front cover of the pattern book or magazine that it was in and mark the outside of the tub with the name of the quilt pattern and the name of the person it is going to (if it's meant for a gift). When a quilters retreat comes up, I can grab a couple of these "project" containers and I'm ready to go. I keep my fabric stash under large containers under every bed in the house and still overflow into closets, cabinets and anywhere there's space.
