Went to a organizing workshop at Houston and was intrigued by Lois Hallock's simple format. As I am/was totally sick of falling over stuff and not being able to find anything, I took the plunge. I really wanted nice cabinets to put my folded/organizes fabric. I was not convinced that I wanted to look at it all the time. Decided to hedge my bets and bought a nice metal shelf at Lowes. Holy mackerel, Lois was not kidding when she said you would find fabric you did not even know you had. What overwhelmed me was the gazillion fat quarters I had. Eventually put the fat quarters in a pile and just worked with flat folding anything bigger than a fat quarter. Soon discovered I needed another shelf. No problem, rearranged the room and that opened up more space for walking. Hummm, maybe Lois knew what she was talking about. Most of it I kept, but I did purge for donation too. Long and the short of it is all lengths are folded and organized on the two shelves, all ufo's are in a closed wardrobe. Those that did not fit were organized into "get done before summer" pile. Then I tackled the fat quarters. I took all of them and either organized them by color or topic. I had no idea that I had that many. Clearly I need to work on those. Regardless, my sewing space is mostly organized, I have wide clear paths I can get around it. However, I do not need any more fabric and therefore and taking the challenge. Unless something is needed to complete a project, I am done buying until some of this is used up. I swear on a stack of fat quarters! On a positive note, I sold a bunch of storage containers that I had emptied and made about $80!!
