Getting organised (or .... I love IKEA)

In honour of our first wedding anniversary, Dan and I got some quality kid-free time organised this weekend.

How did we spend it?
A very romantic trip to IKEA of course!!

New shelving for my sewing room to try and get my ever growing stash under control!!

I knew I would never be able to maintain a beautifully stacked display of fabrics like these fabulous stacks ....

1. my fabric stash, 2. To-Do, 3. My CLEAN stash ;), 4. A cabinet of fabric..., 5. My little sewing room and stash, 6. Repurposed, 7. Folded and Color Coded, 8. Folded, 9. organized fabric

 

So, I bought a heap of drawers / boxes to fit the shelves and filled them with colour coded fabrics.

 

Here is the inside of my 2 favourite drawers:

 

 

And of course, some new fabric to add to the mix:

 

 Dream On layer cake purchased at Over The Rainbow

 

 Tufted Tweets fat quarter stack purchased at Fabric Worm

 

Echino Spring 2010 fat quarter stack also purchased at Fabric Worm

 

I think I need to take a break from fabric shopping for a while. Wonder how long that will last??

PS Dan and I did also manage a romantic dinner in town ... just in case you were worried!!
