PS I am sorry the spreadhseet did not decide to join the Devil on his way down :-( I sent it several times in three different formats.

You can fold them and hang them in a closet with pants hangers...the ones with the grabbers, you know? (where you squeeze it and the teeth hold the fabric). That's how my best friend organizes her completed quilt tops and also any large amount of one fabric.
Purplemem, could you post a pic of the organization thingys you were talking about..not the crates but the other-where you wrap it like a bolt. Thanks!

I got mine at Dollar Tree for -what else?- $1 each. WalMart has them but not so cheap...and they didn't have the clear ones. I especially like that feature.

Does anybody have a way to organize quilt backs? I buy them when I can get a queen size for less than/about $15, so I have 10 right now. They are kinda piled up...
any suggestion would be good ;)

I will post pics after the weekend rearranging...I'll want to show off then. I bought some tiny hair rubber bands today to keep my FQs rolled, I was using pins but I ran out of them :shock: You know, the little clear ones that "don't pull hair" for 500 for $1.

I will use plastic coated paper clips to hold the fabric to the coroplast. This is the stuff they make signs out of for you your yard at election time, unprinted. It's acid free.

I got a beautiful block today from Lee M. This was a much happier day in Corinth! Happy mail! :D :D :D :D

Ok, I did it. I went to the doctor. Turns out I have a nasty sinus infections & if I had only gone 3 days ago, I wouldn't still be in pain today *sighs*. Gawd please let this pain be gone soon!!!!!!! I have been completely useless for over a week! Whaaaa, whaaaaa!

The good news is, I have an antibiotic and soon I will be good as new!

I will have to work some long evenings to catch up on all my customer quilts, which means I'll also be work'n on boomerang blocks! I can't wait until the pain is gone & I can get back to work!
