    I have one suggestion for you. Although I keep all my material in plastic bins on shelves, I took cheap flannel tablecloths and attached them to the top of the shelves, flannel side out. It protects my fabric from fading and gives me a "design wall."
    What a great idea!! I told Mark the new shelving took my design wall, but you just gave it back!! Thank you!! :D

    So glad I could share something that helps someone else out. The most important thing is it will keep your fabric from fading.

    Your before pics are cleaner than my current room! I have burst from the seams literally and can't seem to get on top of it all. I just need to get in there and make a ton of quilts and get rid of some of my stash. I already sold a ton of it and now I am still feeling too cluttered in. Right now I can't walk in there but I need to today. I MUST bind a wall quilt so I can mail it out tomorrow!!
