Oh my...........No. 1 - This cabinet is packed full. Including the three drawers. One drawer is unfinished projects, the next is to the top with batiks and the bottom is civil war.
No. 2 - The right side - Lots of everything. Projects etc. In the middle is two wooden drawers, they are full of batiks. The funny looking tunnel is the cat's toy.
No. 3 - On the left - Lots of roll-around-carts, storage boxes and more project boxes.
No. 4 - Another cabinet. Only the top is full. The bottom actually has clothes in it. I really don't expect much change in all of this by Jan. 1. I have projects that I am working on and really need to finish them before I tackle a new quilt. I had a goal for this year to finish 12 quilts. I think I am getting close. I might even make it. I need the same goal for next year, and if I don't buy anything else :-) I might actually make a dent in all of this.
It looks pretty organized and there's definite a whole lot of it there! :)
ReplyDeleteYou definitely are very organized! I spied a purple Tutto bag - don't you love it? I have one in chartreuse! So now all you have left to do is bust some stash (yeah, I know, easier said than done!)
ReplyDeleteIf you've almost finished 12 quilts you're way ahead of me! I sew a lot but since I do a lot of handwork it doesn't go fast. I live in Arkansas but next summer my husband and I will be going on a mission trip to south Louisiana for four months. It's in Baldwin - a Methodist mission called Sager Brown I'd love to know about any good quilt shops in that area if you're close to there. blessings, marlene
ReplyDeleteI have only lived in south Louisiana for 4 years. I am afraid I don't know where Baldwin is. Fill me in. I do know where the quilt shops are though.
ReplyDeleteI sew a lot. Most of my quilts have "many pieces." They do take a lot of time to finish. I also piece all of my backs. I am not much of a tv watcher. I sew most every evening plus a couple of days at the shop.
The Tutto Bag - I love it. It is the best one I have had. I have had it 2 years and does not show any wear. I have a machine at the shop, so I usually use it to transport my many other needs back and forth. It saves me many trips to my car to load and unload.
And the stash - I have good intentions, like don't buy anymore fabric. I am weak. This weekend the shop is having a sale on batiks. They have 30 new bolts coming in. I love batiks. I need another one like a hole in the head.
Wow Sharie - lots of containers for organizing there. Where in South Louisiana are you? I'm in New Orleans here - been here 9 years now. We only have a few quilt shops here in the New Orleans area - but I travel all over the state at times to shop in those quilt shops! What shop is having a sale on Batiks????
ReplyDeleteI am in the Lake Charles area. There are four quilt stores in the cities of Westlake, Lake Charles, and Sulphur. Westlake is having the sale. I had heard that the New Orleans area had lost quilt stores because of Katrina. Containers are wonderful. Without them I would have a tremendous mess.
