Sorting all my fabric, trims and sewing stuff is on my "long-term" to-do list.

Unfortunately my fabric isn't even all in the same place. some are in those clear plastic boxes you mentioned, but much is in plastic bags left over from projects...*sigh*. I even have vintage scraps from my grandmothers' stashes! but I do adore fabric. maybe someday I'll get organized.<br /><br />My Give Away winner was announced on my blog, but she hasn't replied to my email. "mothertiger" please email me to receive your gift!<br />thanks!Diannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09657202600364368434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14359045.post-83607194925283635722012-11-29T09:50:38.326-06:002012-11-29T09:50:38.326-06:00what a task! i need to do the same thing in my own...what a task! i need to do the same thing in my own studio, only with "stuff" not just fabric.<br />if you find a need to donate some fabrics, as i did last year when i cleared out my own fabrics stash, look for a group of quilters in your area who make quilts for people in need in your community. <br /><br />I donated my fabrics to the Santa Rosa Quilt Guild in my area. they made and donated over 1300 quilts in 2011 helping various service organizations in our community. <br /><br />http://www.santarosaquiltguild.org/community-quilts.php<br /><br />the Guild was delighted to take all the cotton fabrics i gave them, and i got a chance to start collecting again. . . .<br />have fun!Rebeca Trevinohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16775104016989853596noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14359045.post-61056045718595502932012-11-29T09:09:14.808-06:002012-11-29T09:09:14.808-06:00wow, you have a HUGE undertaking, but it will feel...wow, you have a HUGE undertaking, but it will feel so wonderful when it's done!
