They were in a bin and I thought I had tons...who knew?? I am
also finding that they are almost ALL dense prints..and on the dark side...
This below↡↡↡ is why I am doing the re-folding:
I cannot find anything-- anytime-- anyway-- anyhow!!
YIKES and I don't really know what I have on hand...
SO.......................
I am taking on Julie's (click) method....
I am re-folding them over a 6 x 24" ruler so that they
fit my shelving unit...
(at least anything that isn't a scrap)
Today I am tackling yellows and oranges...
Enough with the stuffing of fabric into bins...
I need to SEE what I have and what I need!
Already I can see that I buy the exact same types of fabrics all
the time... **S I G H **
THEN, of course I have to decide what color grouping each
fabric belongs in...
which is much more difficult than it sounds............
especially since all my prints are practically all multi-colored...
I have tried to really go with the backgrounds
as the color family to put them in....
We'll see how that works...
So, no more sewing (as I have boxes, bins & baskets scattered on
every surface in my sewing space...) until the re-fold-a-thon
has been finished...
After the entire shebang is done I will make a list of what I need to
enhance my collection...
********************************
After Saturday morning fol-a-thon
Some progress has been made...
My room is a total shambles:
The floor of my stash closet...
And:
!!P H E W!!
I have a ton of "Novelty" prints and I am thinking--
will they need a stack of their own?
And should ALL batiks go into a separate pile and/or
then by color?
these are the day's burning questions.....;000
[This doesn't even include those chunky, uneven leftovers -- but
**WHOA NELLIE*
one thing at a time...foldable pieces for now...]
Any suggestions? Out there? Anyone??
Hugs, Julierose La blageuse (in & out of the closet-euse lol)
