I Think I May Have a Problem!

My latest quilting craze has been Laundry Basket Quilts.  When they started their Fabric Club (12 fat quarters a month!), I couldn't resist in delving into this new addiction.  

Fat quarters - Laundry Basket Quilts Fabric Club Subscription

And now look where it finds me...I'm going to run out of storage room.


In the photo above: two left-side bins with my Laundry Basket Quilts fat quarters, right-side bin with the newer fat quarters, yet to be integrated 

I have made my own bins from wooden crates from Joann Fabrics.  I had, initially, built two bins when I had collected about a year's worth of bundles.  I had them bundled on a shelf and it was difficult to search through the fat quarters.  I wanted to store the fabric so that I could see the fabrics, organized by the fabric collection.  And with all the colors exposed, it's a visual treat!

By the end of 2024, I had collected another 6 bundles, and the bins were getting tight with fabric.  It was time to make another bin.

The third bin will be full before I know it.  I could make a fourth bin, but I don't have the space to place it beside the other three.  I'm going to have to decide to stop the club subscription or figure out another location in my small sewing room.

What do I do?!

Till next time,
