Here is the whole rack that I showed a portion of in yesterday's post. Yesterday I sorted the reds, what fun, and there weren't any I wanted to get rid of. To the right of them is the overflow of Brandon fabrics (which you can see the edge of on the right) and a couple Kaffe yarn dyed wovens. There is a pile of fat quarters in front of the stack. So the second shelf from the top was sorted Saturday and the reds on Sunday. The 2 unsorted shelves are the Philip Jacobs prints. On the bottom shelf is Laurel Burch fabric on the left and in the 2 storage boxes are black and white batiks and red and black batiks. The very top shelf has 2 groups of Robin Pickins fabric and 3 boxes of scraps sorted loosely by color. Also up there in a plastic bag is the remainder of the Wishwell Weather Report fabric.
Last night I got the rest of the dark brown strips sewn on the 15 ten inch strips for the Kaffe zipper quilt. Then I knitted for awhile while I watched a cute movie on Prime. It was called Sheep Detectives.
We ended up with 2" of rain on Saturday, much needed to turn the grass green again.

I chuckled when you said you went through your red fabrics and didn’t want to get rid of any of them. I have the same problem with all my fabrics when I go through them looking for any I can donate to the free table at the guild meeting. Wanda, how do you reach the fabrics on your top shelf? I recently enjoyed Sheep Detectives too!
I watched the Sheep Detectives too and it was cute. Don’t you love it when you like every piece of your red stash? I do as then I don’t have any dithering about how I could possibly used it. It rained cats and dogs here yesterday!
It's hard to say "I don't need this fabric anymore" for me, too--Especially since I do a whole lot of crumb and strip piecing which changes the whole look of a fabric!! Sometimes really for the better, I think. Your comment on the reds made me smile;)))
75.6 here with 75 dewpoint--ugh--my glasses fogged up when I
stuck my head out the back door!! It's a downpour right now--and, of course, our new box spring is supposed to be delivered today!!!
Our supposed 2 hour window is 8 a.m. to 8p.m.!! Really?????
And so it goes...hugs, Julierose
Julia and I watched Sheep Detectives recently. We enjoyed it, but Bob could never get into it. I have been going through my collection of quilt books and patterns. Some will be donated to our guild's quilt show committee.
Looks like a lot of fun and re-energize the brain for more possible quilts.
You accomplished a lot -- Sheep Detectives is on my watch list but I've not seen it yet . . .
I look forward to seeing how the zippers come together. (I looked up the pattern and promptly got distracted by the possibilities.) Thanks for the movie/show recommendation.
You have such a big stash! We watched the Sheep Detectives too on Saturday night. It was a clever, well done, funny movie that we really enjoyed.
I know what we have seen the last two days is only a portion of your fabrics and yet you have more. I could barely see the edges of the fabrics on another unit to the right of your newly organized fabrics on the metal rack. You are a true fabric artist with a pallet like yours !
love it when people post photos of way more fabric than i have...LOL...but oh the fun ahead!
Wow, that's quite a collection girl! I'm glad you're having fun sorting through it all 🥰
funny you know you don't want to get rid of any of the red!! and there is so much there and I know what you show is just part of your stash. So much pretty and bright fabric.
Yummy fabrics! That has to feel good now that they are more organized. I am behind on commenting. Yesterday I just wasn't with it!
