I love the colors in your quilt. What a great start. I too am a 'newbie' quilter. Those fabrics must have been difficult to sew with...satin and silk are so slippery. The only fabric I've used so far is cotton.

Hi:

I am totally new to this forum (having just discovered it today) but I loved reading all of the great storage ideas. Like many others, my fabric stash inspires me so I keep things in clear plastic containers stacked under my cutting table. My fabrics are stored according to 'quilters' uses so I have six containers labeled as follows: a fat quarter, strips, strays (left over blocks) charms (5x5 inch squares) and itsy bitsy pieces. I haven't been quilting long so my fabric stash isn't too large....yet. I'm also returning to sewing after years of raising a family and working so I am just in the process of organzing a sewing room (on a limited budget). I appreciate all of the clever ideas. Thanks!
