Here is what it now looks like. The scraps are in these plastic bins, all with labels. They are now separated by color. I haven't gotten around to cutting them up like Bonnie of Quiltville does, let's just say that for me doing it this way was just the beginning. But not only did I do the scraps, I have finally sorted my fabric into their own color friendly bins too. So now I have nine (9) bins of fabric. Didn't realize that I had so much, although for some this is just a kick in the bucket. When I get my eight boxes of fabric out of storage, then I will have more. I'm going to do that this week, as I can't wait to see all the fabric that I have forgotten about since they have been in storage so long. I have boxes of books too, but I think they can stay there for now. You know the old saying, if you haven't used or needed it for six months, throw it out. Well, I have a really big problem throwing out books. To me books are sacred, so the quilting books can stay in storage until I can find a home for them.
