I like the idea of bagging the pattern and fabric and setting up a queue.

I have the all the threads buttons needles etc in some orderly manner ,,,, But This ??? How do you keep that so NEAT ???? Indeed after years of sewing /repairing i feel the need to use up all those cloth pieces. last year i used up some leftovers into well needed new summer dresses, aprons for me and for a friend, bags, remaking clothes that needed to be changed. bags etc ,,, Lucky for me i also started two new Fiberart works that need loads of tiny pieces , and i am happy to share pieces with other Fiberartists. As to your question i think the Real PINK in the second photo fits better , i also think that a bit of the dotted blue will enhance both the patterned cloth and the pink i would use both !!! <br />THANK YOU FOR A GREAT POST <br />mirjam mirjamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08324584152166918336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4035755590833291625.post-41515571440571885502013-05-07T12:17:13.733+10:002013-05-07T12:17:13.733+10:00Great post Pam!

You should see my random stashes of fabrics in various places...no wonder I can never find the right piece! Thanks also for the tip on PDF patterns vs paper patterns. I agree the few McCall's patterns I have tried have not always been a true fit. Then again, I have a very skinny 3 year old who doesn't always fit in the average.<br /><br />I look forward to seeing what you create with these special fabrics and patterns. By the way, I like the pink better.

I'm forever looking for ways to tidy up my house and store things better and when an idea comes to me I then match it to some fabric I have in my cupboard. I've now reached the stage that all my fabric fits in boxes....but only just. I'm hoping to make space in those boxes now - so that when I see more fabric in the sale section that I just HAVE to have, I'll have somewhere to put it!Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04377276479172112517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4035755590833291625.post-51894393577387573062013-05-06T15:28:54.468+10:002013-05-06T15:28:54.468+10:00Hi Pam!

They are both lovely, but I think the pink works best for the project you have in mind. <br /><br />Lots of love from Israel :-) <br />KerenKeren Duchanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05714455369141947796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4035755590833291625.post-36439506387943162312013-05-06T13:05:56.621+10:002013-05-06T13:05:56.621+10:00It was interesting to me to read about your stash ...It was interesting to me to read about your stash busting method. I have begun putting everything for a project in large plastic bags so that I don't forget and use what I have selected for something else. Thanks for sharing the links to the websites with good patterns.Sherryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09664975962756698152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4035755590833291625.post-69813187882368368142013-05-06T12:51:31.489+10:002013-05-06T12:51:31.489+10:00I have a similar method of stash busting - I make ...I have a similar method of stash busting - I make "kits" with the fabrics and notions for specific projects. The kits all go in a Rubbermaid container (or a drawer, when the container is full, LOL) to be worked on as I have time. Unfortunately zipper bags - my favourite project to make - don't exactly bust a lot of stash, lol. I've gotten into making little girls dresses thanks to you - I can make them in any size I want since whatever won't fit the little girls I know, will get donated to a local centre :D I just need to find the right BOY pattern or tutorial and bust some boy fabric!Sandra :)https://www.blogger.com/profile/16239494415344028806noreply@blogger.com
