Christian Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Stop buying fabric?? Never! Ok, I admit it, I have no idea how much fabric is in my spare room. I keep finding bags of it! I also need to find a way of keeping it all together and putting it away somewhere neat and tidy, so I can find it again... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Can you stack it on shelves in colour piles? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 That is the plan. My lovely chippie has just quoted for a shelving unit to fit in an alcove above the stairs in my spare room. I have bought boxes to put the fabric in and he is building the shelves around those, so it should look neat....trouble is, I have a lot of fabric...

bluekarin Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Maybe think like packing a suitcase and roll the fabric if that's possible. I need to sort my wardrobe out as I have quite a it, but most is unused clothes which need cutting up and chucking the unusable bits.

Olly Posted January 22, 2013 Author Share Posted January 22, 2013 You mean like this? Trouble is, that works if you have big pieces of fabric - most of mine is fat quarters/recycled stuff/patchworky type things Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 I'm the same Olly, I have a few metres of some fabric, that I use most of, but most are smaller bits. I plan to colour code the boxes i bought in Ikea, red, blues, creams etc....that is the plan anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
