My Stash
Pat Sloan at the Learning Center on the Quilting Gallery has been doing a series of organizing tips for sewing spaces. And I’ve taken another look at my stash:
It’s not very large, and I have some organization to the fat quarters (top pic) that makes sense….at least to me! Sometimes I think I’d like to have walls of fabric like those seen in some of the studios featured on Pat’s post, but then I feel guilty at the fabric just sitting there doing nothing – and when I want to start a new project, I have to go and buy more fabric. Most of what I have is leftovers, and actually there are times when they’ve come in handy to fill out a corner here and there, to do a Quilt-along, to practice a new technique. Anyway, it works for me!
I’m linked to The Learning Center, trying to win the BIG prize LOL!
Happy organization! Blessings, Peg
Peg, thanks for sharing your stash. I love the cabinet you have your fabrics stored in.

Good luck! I am cutting back on giveaway entries because I just don't have time!
ReplyDeleteYour stash looks quite organized to me: you can see everything and have easy access. As for more fabrics - it is easy to get bored with what we see for a long time, and unless one is a super productive quilter a big stash would necessarily contain a lot of "old" fabric.
ReplyDeleteI want to shovel out my room this summer when all the doors can be open and I can just chuck!!
ReplyDeleteMy stash is in boxes and bags and my hope chest... I have a plan for organizing it and it looks great on paper! One day it will be real wood and baskets instead of just the imaginary kind.
