I'll take your stash any day, congratulations on having so many beautiful fabrics at your disposal. :thumbup: |

wow, great job it sure looks good and has to be more hassel free! Thanks for sharing this it is good to get new ideas for organizing stash. I am retired now and have moved to a smaller home. I once had a room just for crafts, quilting, sewing, etc. I now have to be more choosie as to what is important to have on hand because of room! Your room has given me some good ideas as to how to compact and orginize what I now have. Thanks again!

I went to Lowes and also searched online at Lowes and I can't seem to find the shoe organizers, is there an item# or name they use. Would love to get them for my organization project. Thanks. |
I have looked too plus can't find the polacast stuff too so I have been using cardboard for the wraping and my own shelves

My goodness, you are tidy! I've been wrapping my fabric for a while, but had shoulder surgery this summer and can't quite reach lots of places to put the stuff back! So it stacks up.....in neat little piles but it does stack up. Looks like you are another serious Alaskan quilter! blessings
