Look at all that fabric!  Just seeing this fabulous sewing space makes me want to sew something.  You’ll love this blog, so go over and check it out.

This is a beautiful space with a smart storage solution for those fabric scraps.  Use little plastic bins for all those pretty pieces you’ve been saving for another project.  I try to use every bit of my favorite fabrics!  I make lots of buttons.

Recycle an old grape container to store your fabric and look great at the same time.  I want one…or maybe 5!

I’ve featured this great sewing room from Sew Many Ways before but I had to share another idea from this space

file your fabric 008

Using a file cabinet to store your fabric!  Great idea!  I’m not sure why I never thought of that, but it seems like a great solution for organizing.  You could even write all the fabric information on the folder and make it easy for your next order. 

You’ll find more fabric storage solutions here…

How do you organize your fabric???

I organize by color on sturdy white metal shelving units. After seeing these photos, I have a serious case of Stash Envy.

That last picture with the file drawer is BRILLIANT!!! I will be saving that idea for future versions of my sewing studio. :-)

Generally, my fabrics are sorted in roygbiv order and neatly folded so they stand like books on a shelf… but currently my stash is a shambles. (sigh)

Love! I’m not creative with my fabric storage {they’re all in plastic drawers}, but I love all these fun ideas!

Great tips! I have been collecting some vintage fabrics for awhile. One day I plan on making some really cool stuff but in the meantime, I think I just like looking at them, lol!

That is super inspiring !! I’m in the mid of studio reorganization …I wish I could just move the walls a bit here and there to add more shelves and bookcases .I love separating fabrics in stashes , such a eye candy and helps a lot with finding things :) I need to find a time to get more boxes ..these little things make my life very contain :)

Thanks for all the inspiration!

Love all these ideas – great for the smaller pieces….I’m still trying to find a way to organize the bigger lengths in cotton knits and fleeces etc. Currently have them in drawers and bins…..but I make a royal mess when searching through to find what I need.
