Earlier this summer we decided to move my quilt studio and its been a eye-opening experience.

For starters, moving can be a long drawn out process, and I have been unpacking for a week.  I’m still only a quarter of the way through my fabric stash.  Before the move, I stored my fabric in plastic bins (open, of course), but I decided to sort my stash by color in the new studio.  Except for the fabric for the twenty or so quilts that I have designed already in my head, I’m stacking.  And this is just the beginning.

Scraps are one of the things that slow me down sometimes, because I have so many.  Every time I make a new quilt, I create more and more scraps. One of the things I’m excited to do once I’m all moved in, and have the fabric all sorted is to get those scraps organized and usable.  I’ve dreamed of the day that I would FINALLY be able to get a  quilt done fast, fast, fast.  That day is coming, thanks to  Bonnie Hunter’s Scrap User’s System from Quiltville.  Another post for another day~Happy Saturday!
