Thanks for sharing the site..

I am trying to get my "stash" out of the suitcase(S) and into some form of a system... I waste my time sitting on the floor and going thru my luggage of material to see what I want to use.. and LO and beHOLD... as I shuffle thru the suitcases I stack FQs and my mind sees other ideas... forgetting the main reason why I went into that suitcase in the first place.. :yawn:

So with what they have done.. heck I can still sit on the floor if I wish.. but sorting thru all to find ONE will not have to happen again..

Well.. I picked up 1 each 3 drawer plastic set... GREAT... and as I walked down the aisle, I noticed a 10 block shoe holder (ya know the type that hangs in the closet)... I picked two up at $6.88 each..

I have NOW emptied the suitcase of FQs and arranged them by color into the "slots".... it is wonderful... Eye level.. color coded and right there...

The drawers have all my scraps... scissors... everything to try to make my life a bit easier... Now I need to get the sewing machine humming!!!!!!


Thanks girls.. for the great idea..
