    That would be great. Too bad you live so far away in New York. She is definitely a keeper. Currently works as a Middle School Band Director and loves it! Of my 3 kids, she is definitely the organizer. We've been out of state attending her school's Bowl game and just got home tonight. I will try to take a picture of the shelving unit she set up for me and get it posted. We left right after Christmas and didn't have time to take down all of the Christmas stuff. As soon as we got home, she took down the tree and got our Living room back in order and helped me put away all of the china dishes from Christmas that were still in the Dishwasher when we left.

    She is going to be blown away when I tell her all of your wonderful comments.

    I promise to post a picture within the week! She just did this for me a day or two before Christmas, then we left for 8 days and just got home at 9:00 tonight.

    I haven't looked at the actual shelf upstairs, but this one at Walmart looks like it.

    http://www.walmart.com/ip/Mainstays-...Tower/16451698

    It only cost about $28.00 too! It's just under 20" wide, 9.5" deep and 49" tall.

    My daughter put 3 stacks of fat quarters on each shelf. That leaves a little wiggle room for putting a few fat quarters on edge if there were a few too many to stack.

    That is a loving daughter. She knew how important it was to you to have a space where you could enjoy quilting.
