Woo Hoo! This morning I get up and get my slippers out of my walk-in closet. As I am putting them on I glanced at the two huge Rubbermaid bins I have in the back and noticed the bottom one seemed to have a pattern in itt?!?!?
I dragged it out, opened it up and voila! The entire thing was filled with fabric I have had for years! Beautiful home dec fabrics that will make great handbags or jackets, gorgeous cotton prints and a bunch of patterns I forgot I had. Bot to mention about 6 yds. of muslin! This has been in here since we moved into this house almost 5 years ago!!
I was so excited, it was like Christmas!! Now where to put it all

I think it has been like that for some participating in the Fabric Fast thread. We have so much already!
