I have been hard @ it the past couple of days trying to re-organize my studio! What a huge undertaking! However I have come across an idea that has been a great success & I thought you might be interested too. I realize that the better I am getting the better my organizational skills are becoming too. I went from this very high pile of mess to this wonderfully sorted & I can actually SEE what I have in the mini bins even on the shelves! By rolling the fabric it decreases the wrinkles too! A win win. I am making progress but it is very slow going, below you will see photo #3 this is what my kitchen table looks like right now sigh............#4 & #5 is the one side almost completed & it looks so much nicer & neater too sigh............I am too tired to do any more tonight I am pooped out! I will hopefully have the table cleared off & put away before hubs gets home from work lol I need there to be two of me...............whew! while doing all this I came upon 23 different UFO'S? I am quite surprised to see this many & hope to put a big dent in that pile before years end!

wow.. great job.... your room must be large..

Good for you. I llke your stick-to-it-ness. I have found when I share and know someone else is doing it (what ever that it is.) helps to motivate me. Keep it up.

Great work(out) for sure!
You will smile each time you look at the orderliness that you created!

It looks a great way to get to each fabric you need and very easy to put back, and looks good too.
Hugs Pam

Nicely done. I'm impressed.

Any chance you could pack it up already in the bins like this so you can "whip" them out and start stitching? Put at least one pair of scissors and the dongle if your machine has one with your driver's license and birth certificate and other valuables. All of us seem to misplace scissors in this group.

WoW ! great job. great idea to roll the fabric, it would be so much easier to make your project choices, instead of pulling from a stack.

i agree if only i was closer we would build shelves!!!

by pldc 03 Nov 2014

I have wall to wall shelves lol & they are floor to ceiling I need a bigger room lol No doing things this way has made it so much neater & I can fit more in the bins too. I am just a slow poker I guess my mind can only go so fast?

Looks pretty too.

We think a like. I have been working on my fabric too, but I I have been folding it just like you your find the fabric in the store and placing it in the shelves. I have been able to fit all of my fabric on the shelves. Yea! Enjoy your newly organized studio.

thanks Sharon, me too. ~hugs~

I don't think the top picture is too much of a mess, but I do see what you mean in the second picture. It looks very nice. Sounds like you are building a resume of all your accomplishments and they are many. Yes, a win-win situation. I may borrow your idea. Thanks for sharing. hugs
