October 26, 2005Here are more pictures of my stash room. This is my closet, filled with modular shelving and as you can see there are books from one end to the other at the top of the closet here. I need to go through all the magazine files in this area and sort through what I want to keep and what I can put up for sale on the Legacy marketplace. Some of the designs I used to like don't appeal that much to me and I will probably not get to stitch some of what I have, so I am trying to weed out those items and make some space so I can arrange the stash I have. As it is I am out of growing room in this area and need to do 'something' to make some room for the things I want to keep.
Below is the picture of my floss drawers. I spent a lot of time cutting rods and
drilling before I could insert the floss bags with tabs. I also made my own tags for the colors as it was difficult to write small enough to get them done by hand. I still have some fibers to add to my drawers, and may have to add another cabinet as well since I am also running out of space in the drawers. I've added the Vikki Clayton Silks to my collection and need to put all those fibers away in the drawers as well, so I am oging to be doing that once I get the patterns sorted out in my closet and cabinets. So there is quite a bit of work left to do. 
Here is a picture of the 5 drawer lingerie cabinet that I transformed into my floss drawer. I drilled holes in them, added the rods, and hen put in all the tagson the bags, and the labels, filled them with the fibers and filed them in order in the drawer. It is quite a process, but worth the time invested. It also looks very neat, and ai LIke that too.
Well, when I get more of the work done in my Sash room I will show you the final pictures.
Winter will be an enjoyable time for me - working and playing in my Stash Room, and hopefully working on a few of those UFOs too.
