    Working on my fabric too! Had to since shelves my DH put up all came tumbling down (he's not a handyman) and had to have brother put them back up! Hubby helped pick fabric up and put into boxes and remarked, "Do you really think you can use this all up in your lifetime?" Didn't tell him I had five more boxes already in the shed! LOL!

    Found I have twice as much green as any other color! And hardly any pink!

    I also have far more blue than any other color.

    Probably 2nd most is green, which I am really not crazy about, but it just seems to be needed in so many quilts.

    3rd most popular color is red, bright red. Red is my dear mom's (age 92) favorite color so I always think of her when I see red fabric, and I can't resist buying some!

    Thanks for sharing about the ruler trick. Isnt it fun to go through your own stash and see fabrics that you forgot you had?

    I always said my favorite color is blue. Wellllllll, when I reorganized, I found out that teal and yellows and golds are more predominate in my stash than blues Hmmmmmmm, wonder what that really means?

    When we finished with the remodeling of a spare bedroom my mother came over and we organized it all on shelves. I was surprised to find I had done a pretty good job varying my colors.
