WOW -- D.Hensen your stash looks great. I love the way it gives you access to your fabric. I had a bunch of my fabrics on comic book boards and discovered the way my dad built the shelves (over 50 years ago and they are one of the only things I have that he made) I can't get the boards and stand them up so I have been ruler folding them again.

D.Hensen and rryder, how much fabric are you putting on your boards. I have the boards but do not know what length of fabric to put on them.
I have been sorting my fabrics and have donated a lot to a church quilt group. The make and send things to US states and others abroad.

It doesn't take long to make a mess of my sewing room-Grandson made a pillowcase last week and extra fabric is still sitting out. Granddaughter came over today and used the machine all day - I cut circles out of jeans. My big machine is in the shop so I'm trying to get other projects done that don't require a machine. Which of course makes another mess! I can either have a clean room or work on projects!

I've started a project that I am really enjoying (handsewing hexagons for a hopefully queen sized quilt). I am using that as a reward for time spent organizing and cleaning. Right now, we are getting ready for our trip back South. I plan to use the same reward for motivation on organizing my sewing space when we get down there. It's a good project to do with my morning coffee too -a waking up project.
My hubby taught me about using a reward system way back when. Sure beats the guilt system I grew up with.
