ReplyDeleteI've got a soft spot for fatquarters, because when I first became interested in sewing, I bought a ton of them. Now I store them all in a picnic basket that a basketmaking friend had given me.

I have them on shelves according to type: traditional calico, brights, Asian, African, Novelties, Homespuns, 1930's repos, Black and Whites, Holiday, and Kaffe Fassett. I put like colors together within each type, and fold the pieces (from fat quarters to half yards or whatever) so that I can what is in the bag from the end, which faces out. When I used to store all of the fat quarters separately, I did not seem to use them as much!

ReplyDeleteI dont' see the question anywhere but in reading others comments, I assume you are asking how we all store scraps. I fold and shelved all pieces larger than fat quarter size. I have FQ's in another plastic shallow tote. Anything smaller than a FQ, I just put in a drawer, then when I need "time away" from the machine I will take the scraps and cut them into the biggest piece/measurement I canget out of it and then I have plastic drawer units (12x12) and I labeled the drawers, 2,1/2 - 3,1/2 - 5". I either cut the strips that width or cut squares that size. Haven't made anything with the scraps yet, but it is fun to do this much!
ReplyDeleteI'd like to follow you via Email, but your burner thing says it isn't set up to follow that way...just fyi. I don't bother with facebook...FB is just to cluttered to deal with!

ReplyDeleteI currently have them sorted by color and fabric type and stored on shelves. It isn't great. I'm looking for some sort of basket or box that I can keep them in a similar order so I'll be able to see them all at a glance- and pull one without the whole pile falling over. I'm going to read all these other ideas now.
ReplyDeleteOn shelves, by colour!

ReplyDeleteI story my FQ's in cute little boxes with lids that i purchased at Micheal's. They look nice on my shelves and I can pull them down and look through them easily.
ReplyDeleteAll my fabric goes into a chest of drawers, often I'll lose the overview of what exactly I've got which makes the rediscovery during my periodic sort outs all the more exciting. Thankfully the end of this system is insight when I finally get a dedicated sewing table and bookcase to store fabric. Regarding fat quarters I only have one bundle and that is getting turned into 2 farmer's wife quilts
ReplyDeleteFor now I keep all of my fabric in a big rubbermaid tub in the attic so my husband won't know just how much fabric I have.

ReplyDelete
