Great Idea for storage!!! you know I have always told my kids that the reason I have so much material is that I am saving for my retirement. So I will have something to do and not spend their money when I need some fabric LOL. But now I got my daughter hooked and she is buying what WE want and adding to my stash.

What I didn't show you is what the rest of my sewing room looks like right now. I decided to re-organize everything so, starting at the wall with the stash, I pushed everything else to the other end. It's an unbelievable mess right now, as you can see below. Even I had to laugh when I looked at the pictures again! :) :)
Looks like mine all the time! So said we can't have anyone to dinner anymore!

I experimented with the 24X6 inch ruler. It really does save space! Would like to make some dividers like yours so things would stay neater. Any suggestions?
