    So really not that long. I also like you color coordinated the scrap hangers with their designated scrap color!

    You have some really good storage ideas. Is the rest of your house as organized? I ask that because I can keep my fabrics and sewing supplies fairly neat, but I have a hard time dealing with all the paper that accumulates in the sewing room and elsewhere.

    This has to be the most unique fabric organizing system I've ever seen, really. Now everyone will be looking for those old file cabinets to refurbish. Me included. But you know, they bring back many memories of my working days. Our file cabinets were about 4.5 high, the drawers were about 4 feet wide, and stacked 3 per unit. We must of had 100 per floor. Boy I wish I had a couple of those,now that I look at your idea. i love refurbishing.
