A Little Organizing

After

I'm off work this week, so I started off with sorting a bunch of fat quarters and other fabrics.  I've been wanting to do this for a while, since I have the bad habit of letting purchases and ongoing projects collect in assorted shopping bags.  This eventually makes me crazy, and at some point, I have to get everything sorted by colours into clear sweater boxes.  Needless to say, these have grown over the years.

Before

The reds did not behave, and had to share with the yellows!  And I do not have enough blacks to have them in their own box, so I tucked them in with a new box of greens.  I've been collecting greens and reds for a Christmas quilt I have in mind, so I seem to have a lot of them.  What am I thinking about planning another quilt, when there are so many others already lined up.

A few other larger totes hold larger pieces of fabric for backings and such, along with yardage that has been aspiring to be pretty blouses. So many ideas, so little time. . .

Anyway, I'm away for a few days of much needed vacation time, so I'll leave the fabrics to play on their own.
