Deepika, I can't believe how I lived without my fabrics being organized in binders! As you can imagine, it took a long time for me to measure and swatch everything but now I can do all my planning on the couch now that I have all my patterns in binders too. No more pulling things out of the closet only to find that I don't have enough! I'm not as organized with the left and right thing so I might have to copy that from you for new additions. :-) |

Thanks Deepika! What a great idea! Now if a little fairy would come and wave her wand so that all the measuring and swatching was done. I'm going to add "location" to the notes area, because I tend to store my stash by aquisition date, or fabric content, or even sometimes color. |

Deepika, I just love this idea! Thanks for going to the trouble to provide the pages for us. I don't know why, but when I click on the link the page is kind of scrambled. Is it just my computer or does it come up that way for anyone else? |

Thanks Deepika, this is so helpful! I'm going to put this in play immediately, right now my fabrics are in tubs or wire racks according to garment/season and home decs, this will be so much easier and portable! |

This was such a great idea! I am compeled to be organized and this really works well. I immediately did my whole stash and now I won't forget what I have. This system also makes me very aware of what fabrics I am missing to put together wardrobes. |

I would love to see your Fabric Organizer. But, alas, each time I click on the highlighted part of your information, my computer takes me to a blank, yet the bottom bar says Done! I do have adobe acrobat reader, so who knows?? but something is wrong. JanRon |

Great advice! I take photos of the front and back of patterns and keep them in a 3-ring binder in my car in case I stumble on some fabric I must have. But this idea will be great for use when I'm pattern shopping. I'll know what fabrics I have that I could use with the pattern I must have. |

I organized my fabrics in a very similar manner. I first categorize my fabrics, for example florals, plaids, ethnic etc. I used acid free tape and paper to store my swatches and then i put the paper into an acid free plastic covering. I also store my fabrics in boxes and i categorize them in the same manner as the binder |

I have been organizing my fabrics with these templates and I'm almost finished! I can't believe how easy this is and how much time this will save in the long run. |

I love this idea. Easy to take specific binders on shopping trips, for instance, if I'm setting up to sew for my grand-daughter. This is a wonderful idea. Many thanks! |
