I have been looking at my workspaces and realized I needed to do some sorting.  It is not very creative but it helps me find what I need to find.  Like squares for quilts.  Or patches for bear's knees.  Or the backing for a quilt.  Or the makings of a market bag.  Or . . .  Just makings.

I filled an old wooden box I had.  My Dad gave it to me.  It was his when I was small.  I do not remember what he used it for but I took markers to it and made it into a dollhouse for my doll Sarah.  I wanted a dollhouse but knew it was not going to happen.  This was my solution.  

I obviously still have the box.  I was making due even when I was small which just makes me smile.  Now, my dollhouse is fabric storage.  Not my only but my ultimate goal is to fit all my fabric into four plastic bins and this box.  I know that is a huge undertaking but that is the goal.  I wonder how many quilts and market bags will be made between now and then.  Let alone shirts, vests, dresses, and nightgowns.  It will be interesting.
