Now... when it come to refiling all the pieces I've used or auditioned... let's just say, I'm way behind.Deborah Boscherthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15630878222793439712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16634800.post-1153964288362114102006-07-26T18:38:00.000-07:002006-07-26T18:38:00.000-07:00This is a great idea.

Sometimes I pull out whole color sections when I want to audition fabric, but I try to leave as much as I can in the drawers, so I don't have to "refile" them.<BR/>I am trying to limit my stash to those drawers. I have to reduce my stash (make mroe quilts) if I want to buy any more, because there isn't any more room.Shelinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09870112367076954109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16634800.post-1153927610457457692006-07-26T08:26:00.000-07:002006-07-26T08:26:00.000-07:00I buy plastic containers at the Dollar Store, too....I buy plastic containers at the Dollar Store, too.

I can see through to what color is in which drawer and when I need something, I too, paw through the stash. What I need for a project ends up on the floor, and then when I'm done the leftovers get folded (sorta) and stuck back in the appropriate drawer. It's a controlled mess :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16634800.post-1153899837311934362006-07-26T00:43:00.000-07:002006-07-26T00:43:00.000-07:00Terry, I store mine in a somewhat similar way and ...Terry, I store mine in a somewhat similar way and have also found it very convenient.
