Do you think I need to do something with my stash?
After some consideration, my thoughts are "Yes". (Oy!) I have more scraps than whole fabric - :) The big stacks are yardage of more than 2 yards, the small folded pieces are 1-2 yards; the rolled pieces are less than one yard. But the rest - in the boxes, baskets and clear plastic bags are all scraps. Sheesh!
Oh! Except - see that tiny little stack on top of the first row of boxes? That tiny little stack consists of my WIPs. Go me!
I'd like to totally re-do my sewing room, actually...
Stay tuned!

Oh Barb, I think it could use some expansion! :)
ReplyDeleteAwesome stash
ReplyDelete*shhh!* I'll never convince Beloved Spouse that I need a trip to Ikea with responses like that!!! ;)
ReplyDeleteIt looks perfectly fine to me!
ReplyDeleteI was going to comment on how organized your stash is, but reading that you are hoping for a trip to Ikea I'll say go for it! A good neat stash deserves those new Ikea units.
ReplyDeleteOh my Kit! You are making my stash feel tame. That is a ton of fabric!!!! How ever are you going to be able to use any of that without organizing it? I think I saw some storage at IKEA that would be perfect! I cannot wait to see your sewing room redo-- and the even more amazing quilts that result from it! (I find organizing very inspiring... I think I need to do some of it too!)
ReplyDeleteAt last - confirmation!!!! ;)
ReplyDeleteNo Alexis! BAD Alexis!! That is NOT a ton of fabric! It's only barely enough fabric!!!!
ReplyDelete(Sheesh! Whose side are you on here?) ;)
And yes - a trip to Ikea is DEFINITELY in order! ;)
Now that I take another look... you're right! It only LOOKS like a lot of fabric because it not organized as efficiently as it could be. Imagine the possibilities with better organization... and MORE fabric!
ReplyDeleteEXACTLY.
ReplyDelete(Thank you!) :)
Me too! I want one of those days where I get whisked aways to a spa or something & then a whole team comes in & ta-dah!...I get a dream sewing studio - just like that!
ReplyDeleteOne can never have enough fabrics so I think you have to buy more :) .
Oooh! That's a fabuous idea! I'm going to pitch it to HGTV! Think they'll go for it? ;)
ReplyDeleteAnd I appreciate your support Xue! :)
And I thought I was organized and a fanatic at being organized, but I think you have me beat. Your WIP's is to be envied. I still have quite a few to finish. Looks good to me.
ReplyDelete:) Thanks Carol. Of course, now I'm (temporarily) out of batting so the WIPs will start building again. Maybe I just need to work on some art pieces instead. Those take me a long time. :)
ReplyDeleteOh...stash issues!!!! ;)
ReplyDeleteI can relate...I have similar stash issues!
