That way, I can pull all sewing theme fabrics for a project easily. My Christmas fabrics take up 2 full tubs.

The rest get thrown in be size or color.The Joyful Quilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10706614750500929214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1378425196583923775.post-80187748201306755502016-05-12T07:27:23.809-05:002016-05-12T07:27:23.809-05:00I've done something similar to you, all the ba...I've done something similar to you, all the batiks are kept in a separate bin, Christmas fabrics have their own bin, flannels of all sizes in a huge bin and another comforter size plastic zip bag holds baby/juvenile flannel fabrics. Solids are mostly kept separate from the rest of the fabrics, although that pile has overflowed out of its designated bin. Storage space is at a premium in our little house so things are not as well organized as I'd like but the stash is small enough that it's not too difficult to find what I'm looking for.Quilting Babciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16225825007525655805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1378425196583923775.post-92133784912038427012016-05-12T05:48:53.891-05:002016-05-12T05:48:53.891-05:00I keep all of my holiday fabric together, from scr...I keep all of my holiday fabric together, from scrap to yardage and if I had a FQ bundle I keep all of them together including scraps, otherwise scraps go into the pile.

I keep all the Kaffe Scraps together and all the Collections for a Cause prints too, only because they are going into a designated sampler quilt... but those are pretty much my only scraps that are organized.

I keep mine sorted similar to you. Have a RW&B bin. Also have a shoe box with brights and I Spy strips longer then 10" ready to go as wonky rail fence quilts. When it gets full, I make a quilt to donate. I also use large zip bags to sort strips for a planned scrappy quilt, currently collecting pinks and browns. So much fun!Elaine Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14605111489532551743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1378425196583923775.post-57602425734704776462016-05-11T12:08:35.876-05:002016-05-11T12:08:35.876-05:00Please give me the address for the Canada program,...Please give me the address for the Canada program, H2H.Carol E.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02741550863747328734noreply@blogger.com
