Quilting tips #19 A magic journey of fabric scraps, how I organise my fabrics, fabric processing
I have always been a messy creator. It didn’t bother me how many things piled up on the floor and shelfs. I had time… When my kids arrived, crafting became a luxury time. It took me a while to work out routine which allowed me to continue my journey as a creator. It involved minimalism in my wardrobes and house but also, introducing organisation to the space I was working in. Removing re-work, planning preparation, working in batches.

Once I grouped the heavier denim with the lighter voile, the whole process felt less like a chore and more like a treasure hunt https://www.rba.gov.au/payments-and-infrastructure/ I even tried your trick of using a simple cardboard rack to keep the rolls upright; it saved me from countless tangled messes and made the “fabric processing” step feel surprisingly efficient. The way you fold the smaller…
Love this, you are sooo organised! Well done. Wanna be like you x.
