Fabric

I cleaned up yesterday.

There’s a boatload of fabric in here (but honestly, it doesn’t seem like that much now that it’s all cleaned up).

It looks messy (but I can tell you exactly where any one piece is because the organizational scheme makes sense in my head).

It’s nice having everything cleaned up (but now I can see the ugly carpet since it’s no longer covered in fabric and quilts).

And to think I’ve bought almost no fabric in the past 1.5 or so years. Crazy? Maybe.

And this doesn’t even include the Leaning Tower of (Buckets Full of) Scraps…

Having a munchie craving? May I suggest these fabulous no-calorie, fat-free Kona chips? Colorful and delectably scrumptious. And high in fiber!

There is quite a bit of prep work involved but we can just look at it as a way to brush up on your knife, err, Olfa skills.

Om nom nom. (And yes I really cut up my color card. Allie at RK said I could! It makes picking colors for a quilt *so* much easier.)

Don’t forget the birthday sale! Ends Wednesday night.

Q: What happens if I’m running low on scraps?  I’ve been on a scrap quilt kick and the buckets are almost empty!

A: Make more quilts! The scraps will follow.  Promise.

Scary thing is that there is no backing in those stacks.  And there are four quilts missing from the stacks.  Yikes.  Am I allowed to be freaking out about the amount of work to do before Market?

And no, I’m not actually running low on scraps.  After weeks of sewing them it looks like I didn’t use a single piece out of those buckets.
