Scraps that were too small to be folded were placed into bags, by color. This will be perfect for Rainbow quilts, and I have so many quilts planned to use these!!!
I have touched almost every fabric I own. Every gifted scrap and piece of lovely quilting goodness!!! It was so much fun!! And now I have blacks, grays, oranges, teals, pinks, blue, reds and greens all separate and ready to go. I emptied several small bins, which were getting heavier as time is going on. Hurrah!!
Now this does not include my 1930's fabrics, of which I have a small bin. Nor my plaids, nor my reproduction fabrics, of which I have a bin of those too. But!!! This is vast majority of everything I own, at my fingertips for use!!
Whoop!!
I found a few fabrics that were downright unsuitable, due to being polyester double knit or just downright ugly. Out they went.
And here are my hexie blocks so far for this year. Nice to work on in the car.
So, I am all excited about the fabric storage dresser!!! I have three empty drawers, still.

Love the pumpkin blocks! The new dresser will continue to make you happy every time you need a specific color of fabric.
How great to have all your fabrics organized in your new dresser;))
I really like those pumpkin blocks--nice work hugs, Julierose
Your projects are such fun -- especially the pumpkins. Your tidily-arranged stash looks wonderful. (Now, how long will it stay so orderly? LOL!)
Organizing fabrics seems to spark new joy, doesn't it? :-) I love the flag and the pumpkin quilts growing. All lovely! Happy Labor Day! I think we are just starting our summer here. Odd little micro climate that I live in but we love it.
Lovely happy post - like how Kitty is posing so nicely and what a tidy stash (at present!) much joy to you, Elaine in UK
