Still sorting.......

The first thing I did with the sorting was to pull all of the positive/negative pairs.  I put the spools in there for your color fix.




Then I made piles of other groups like this one of letters and numbers.







This shelf is all dots and circles.









This group is all stripes and other geometric prints.  There is a lot of miscellaneous too.

    what fun. I love your quilts and have long wondered about your stash and how your store/organize it.
    I have been collecting black and white prints, have some of my favorites on the barrister bookshelves in my sewing room and the rest in a bin. Wish I had more visual storage-- would be easier to find what I wanted to use...

    enjoy your blog every morning..

    This stash assortment boggles my mind! You have great foresight for what might come in handy and be needed someday!

    I am amazed by your collection of B & Ws. Wow, are you thinking of something in particular or just having a good time? Doesn't matter- thanks for the photos!

    My problem when I start this type of sort to "arrange" the stash is I start getting all sorts of ideas and glimmers and the next thing you know I am no longer sorting and stacking...

    My one granddaughter plays the flute and when I made her quilt, it was full of all black and white musical instruments. So I have tons of left overs.

    What fun to play with such a wonderful palette of black and whites! There is just nothing like a robust stash, is there!

    LOVE all your black and whites! I plan on trying to sort mine the same way you have sorted yours.

    I'm a black/white hoarder, so I love seeing this! Mine are all folded nicely in a consistent size...but man, the patterns are in complete chaos. You've inspired me to try to put some sort of order to the hoard!
