Just saw this - posted on your other thread a few minutes ago - looking great, Deb! Did you wrap the fat quarters around a board or just fold them? Also was wondering about the comic boards....I'm feeling inspired to try to organize my stuff which is spread in three rooms and the basement :)

DH just saw the pictures so I explained where you are going with this. He immediately thought of his garage and said how he knows it can really get away from you. He starts out organized, then one day just sets something down planning to get back to it and put it away. Then he adds something and then adds more until finally he can't walk into the garage. So he has to start all over.

The FQ's are folded just like I bought them. NO boards. The boards are on the smaller 1-2 yrd pieces. Fq's just sit all alone. I don't think there's that many boards in the store to do fq's. LOL
And when I run out of boards, I will fold and stack. It's just after a whiel the stack starts to lean like the Tower of Pisa. So the boards help them lay flat.

More progress for you! Yay (and more cute fabric for us to look at).

NP3 - I am quilter....hear me roar.............. ROFL

I am actually enjoying this. Needless to say the hallway is filling up too. But one box/bag at a time. Thanks for the encouraging words everyone. I am not going to ever let it get like this again. Even when I sell, I will pull 10 things at a time.

The a/c man had to come this morning, again, and his wife was in the truck and he asked if she could come in and see my fabric. I told him she could come in but no fabric. LOL. She came in and loved it. He offered me a free craft booth in April at his Saddlecreek Biker BBQ rally. LOL. Betty Boop quilter Biker. Wahoooooooooo

Hi Jo M. I ate the sucker you sent for Valentine's . I could use one now for the sugar rush. LOL. Glad you popped in. What a mess - huh? But stayed tuned. i wish that cute fabric was somewhere else but will keep on folding. There is still 3/4 of the room to go and 2 closets. Oh, I found two 1.00 bills in some fabric. "There's gold in them thar piles." LOL

OK Break is over, back to the quilt room. More progress later.

It takes courage to expose ones mess, so good for you! Now that you showed the world, you practically HAVE to keep working it. Again, good for you. You are very inspiring to some of us who are not gutsy enough to post pics.
