    Default A little organizing progress

    I started with emptying my bookcases, digging out all my stacks, bins, sacks and ''piles''. Now most of my fabric is folded, sorted by color and most put onto the shelves. Some went to Goodwill to be someone else's treasure.

    Here's 2 Before and one After

    If the upload failed it may be because the pic is too big. That's what happens to me. I just resize smaller and try again.

    I somehow never get past the first shelf or two when ever I attempt a clean-up /reorganize. My hats off to those who see it all the way through. I can't wait to see the "after" photo, maybe it will be the inspiration I need to get on with it.

    I have the same problem, constantly reorganizing my sewing room. It's getting there, almost done. I did sort through fabrics lately and sorted 3 bins by color, two more to go.

    The glass covered bookcases are called barrister's bookcases. Originated in England...
