it! Easy Peasy! Good luck to you all!!!!!
Oh man! Unlucky number one. I'm drooling over the Neptune & Flutterby. Please pick me, please pick me, please pick me ( I'm saying this while clicking my heels 3 times)
ReplyDeleteIt looks like you are a new blogger also. I am now a follower. I just started in June and I just love it. Thanks for having a give away.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a fun box! Thanks for the opportunity! I love painter's tape. I can put a temporary label on anything. A box, a quilt I am in the middle of quilting, a row of blocks...I can go on...LOL
ReplyDeleteI am a new follower and I wanna play!! Sounds like great fun!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great box! I would love a chance to win this one and add to it! Please put my name in the hat...

ReplyDeleteTo organize my FQ's, I am using a tall skinny cupboard I got at an auction. It has glass doors, so I can see everything in it. ;)
ReplyDeleteI am now a follower. I love small blogs like yours, so I am happy to become a follower.
ReplyDeleteOne way I organize my fabric is on my shelf-the fat quarters. I have some plastic drawers that are 12 inches that I use for blocks in progress and I have totes for more fabric.
ReplyDeleteI really hope I win, love that Tula Pink!
Great stash box! I could use some christmas fabric (and have some great stuff to share, too!).
ReplyDeleteOrganizing tip? I re-use clementine crates to store bottles of paint.
New follower!
ReplyDeleteI am not that great at sewing organizing, but I do always look through the Target Dollar Spot for good baksets or boxes. They have had some really cute chicken wire ones lately, and I now have one holding spools of thread by my sewing machine.
ReplyDeleteWould love to have the Traveling Stash show up on my doorstep :o)
ReplyDeleteTo organize my rulers, acrylic templates, thread and sewing notions (so they are easy to find when I need them) I use a three drawer rolling cart.

ReplyDeleteone thing I do for organizing my sewing project is use those shoe boxes or large size from the 99 cent store. I put all my pieces, thread, etc into that clear box while I am working on the project. Then when I have a few minutes to work on it, I can just grab that lidded clear container and I am good to start sewing.
ReplyDeleteI like your idea to keep projects in pizza boxes, so clever! I organize my larger pieces of fabric on fabric boards, my medium pieces in tubs by color, and my smaller pieces go into my scrap tower. My scrap tower has four drawers and one is red/orange/yellow, one is blue/green, one is purple/brown/grey, and the last is black and white. I've noticed that since organizing my scraps this way I actually use them, so I guess it's working! Thanks for the chance to win

ReplyDeleteI don't really have any great organizing tips. I have a few see through plastic bins to hold scraps, small bins. If I go bigger they get out of control! I have some storage cubes that I bought at Michaels, they have drawers and shelves and such. They come in really handy for holding all of the smaller things. Other than that I just have a shelf unit made of small 10x10 cubbies that hold all of my fabric and current WIPs.
ReplyDeleteI have no organizational skills what so every. I have tried to organize my fabric by color and placing them in see through containers and them seem to jump right out of the box and mix with otehr organized fabric that I have. I just cannot keep them all togeather. I have given up the organizing game and just let the fabric stay were they want to be.
ReplyDeleteI am a follower and a bad speller. Why don't these comment sections have a take back button or spell check.
ReplyDeleteOh my. Organizing isn't my strong suit. In fact, for Christmas this year, I am asking for thread and ruler organizers. But I do organize my scraps according to the Bonnie Hunter system, cutting them into squares and storing them in tins to use as needed.
ReplyDeleteThis looks like fun! Organizing isn't easy. I try to clean as I go and keep all my notions and tools in one spot. I love baskets. They hold various size scraps and patterns. When I'm working on a quilt that has different size strips I use a silverway tray set to keep the sizes together. Thanks for the chance!
