As much as I would like to claim that the tidying had begun in these photos so stuff was pulled out I must hang my head and admit that it didn't look much different beforehand.
So there has been a lot of this going on...
I have discovered I have a lot of fabric. Who knew?! And that I need more navy. I thought I needed more purple, orange and yellow too but my friends on IG claim I do not. Really?!
All the colours are done now. And the low volume. Working on the solids, fuglies, fussy cuts, and miscellaneous other fabrics.
I hope to be able to how you a sewing space that is navigable tomorrow. An evening of sorting and folding awaits.

sorry, Susan, top picture looks like home to me...
ReplyDeleteThis is appealing to my OCD nature that exists in my head only :) It's good to have a clear out/up though isn't it?
ReplyDeleteWow! Would you please come organize my fabrics! I don't have a clue what I do and don't have either. I find that I have purchased pieces that I already have and didn't know...oh boy! Yours now looks fabulous!
ReplyDeleteAll I can offer is a string of jealous swear words!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteOh, I do love a good sort out!!
ReplyDeleteMust be spring cleaning season, I started on mine last week, although i still have some to finish, good luck!
ReplyDeleteWow!!!! I am always amazed and very jealous at how much fabric people have, as well as a sewing room. Lucky girl. Mine is squashed in one box under the bed. x
ReplyDeleteThat's one pretty stash you have there! Show us the Fuglies...we'll find loving homes for them in no time!
ReplyDeleteI'm with Mrs Flying!!! So jealous of the variety of light blue/turquoise & red. I clearly need to get my shopping done better. I always feel like I have not enough variety when I see shots like this. Mind you I have enough fabric to sink a battleship, it just never looks like this LOL

ReplyDeleteMaybe I need a Fugly purge then start over??
ReplyDeleteThat second pic looks like a scene from a break-in!!!
ReplyDeleteYour sewing space looks exactly like every other sewing space I've ever seen. Congratulations on being completely normal!
ReplyDeleteLove seeing all your fabric in boxes though. It looks like an incredibly organised deconstructed rainbow.
where's the browns?
ReplyDeleteOh wow, it all looks so beautiful neatly folded!! What a lucky lady to have so much gorgeous fabric :-)
ReplyDeleteYeah, you have far more FQs than me there lol I want some of those oranges and yellows!
ReplyDeleteThat's a mini shop right there! I find it hard to get good navy's. Jxo
ReplyDeleteI like your pretty green bins. I too have been organizing. Getting ready for a move does that to you.
ReplyDeleteI need to show DH this....it should shut him up for half a second.
ReplyDeleteGood karma should enter your life now, after that clean up! You deserve some chocolate!
When you see it all together it's sort of scary how much we have, huh?
ReplyDeleteLove the messy shots best, they make me feel better.x
ReplyDeleteI love those containers. My favourite shade of green. Well done for tackling it. I need to do the same with my yarn and fibre stash. I've no idea where half of it is.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty stash and so tidy!!! I never thought of using those IKEA drawers for fabric storage although my daughter has them... Good luck with the rest
ReplyDeletefolding is my most hated task
ReplyDeleteOh yes I love a good sort out, give me a heads up if you decide to destash though, yeah? ;)
ReplyDeleteWow you have been busy! Isn't it great to rediscover all the beautiful fabric you have! Like your bins.
ReplyDeleteI just finished organizing my stash a couple of weeks ago. I did mine much the same as yours except my colors fit in shoe box size containers. I love it because if I want blue, I can pull down the one marked blue. It is hard separating fat quarter sets though that I bought in a bundle. For now, I'm leaving them. Good job!
