The rest of the salvaged crates---saved from the dumpster by my husband---are used to hold fabric in the stash closet. I did a do-over on the closet this past Spring. This is a today photo, so you can see that I have not reverted back to the "cram it in anywhere" method of storing fabric. Actually, Saturday I sorted the big bin of scraps and leftovers from projects I completed in the last few months. I set aside a shoe box of pieces for Emily and her lessons, and the rest was cut into strips and squares and put in the correct bins. I pulled a few pieces out and set aside for use in the small landscapes.
I now have 3 boxes of 2 1/2" strips.....so I will be starting a project soon to put a big dent in those. I am debating on a scrappy braid, or a log cabin. Right now, I am leaning towards a braid.....because I get a couple of questions every week about the braid pattern. It's very easy, just requires a bit of planning for the layout.
Happy Stitching....Debbie

What a great idea, Debbie! I get that hunch-over ache quite a bit and I'm betting a little crate or wooden box under the pedal will do just the trick! Great storage -- everything looks so neat and accessible!!
