I hear you. I have a terrible habit of dropping stuff into my room on the floor, on the cutting table, on the sewing machine...well, you get the picture! Then I can't possibly walk in there, much less work in there, because it's chaos...so I stitch at the kitchen table or only when I go out to meet with quilting friends or I just THINK about quilting. This year I have decided to tidy up a bit each evening...minimum 15 minutes. I started a few days ago...it's amazing what I have found! I sort fabric by colour, type (batiks, kids, reproduction) or project.I keep all my rulers together leaning against the wall in a big bin, or they are in my travel "tool" box or bag. That way I never lose them! I have a drawer in a plastic tower than I keep patterns in. I don't have all that many. My cutting tools and misc small notions are either in a basket beside my cutting table, in my travel tool kit or sewing machine cabinet drawer. Depends what the item is. I do have doubles (or more!)of some things like measuring tapes, boxes or pins, needles, etc. So my theory is just start organizing in a way that works for you and keep at it!
Oh help me, please
I have SO MUCH quilting "stuff"!
I would love to hear any suggestions as to how to organize it all.
Notions, fabric, books, patterns, rulers, templates....
Thanks in Advance
