  • Keep your stash organized! Try using a system of folding your fabrics by size. Fold Fats one way, halves another and yardage a different way so that you can quickly tell how much you have of something at a glance
  • Don't use covered containers to store your stash, your fabric needs to breath so leave those covers off
  • When using Karen Eckmiers layered curves method, create your fabric then cut it up for your project, this way you can let your creativity flow without worrying about how it will fit in the space
