Alex's fabric storage
In one of Alex's videos that I watched several days ago (can't remember which one---duh!), she mentioned that she stores her fabric stash in wire baskets. I'd like some more info on them, please. I'm in the process of re-organizing my stash, and wonder what brand of wire basekts they are. Also, photos of them would be great...or a short video on the daily blog, of her studio and fabric storage!
Thanks!

Not sure if Alex's baskets are the same as mine, but I purchased mine at The Container Store.
They have an on-line site where you can design your own basket storage. I love mine and added
on several years later when the stash overflowed. The new ones match the old baskets. My daughter
bought something similar at one of the big box stores. I don't know if the quality is the same.
Don't buy baskets more than two rungs deep. When full, bigger ones don't move correctly on the
frame. The baskets that are approx 6" deep work perfectly for Margo's folding method.

Thanks for the replies so far! Love hearing about the different suppliers.
I did a Google search this afternoon, and saw that Rubbermaid has some sturdy-looking slide-out wire baskets. As soon as the weather cools here, I'm off to Lowes and maybe even Ikea (4 hours away) to look at them. (100 degrees F is too hot for me to go shopping outside!) In the meantime, I've been staying inside in the AC and sorting through my fabric stash, and organizing it according to color. My sewing room looks like a color-explosion right now! 8)

I have hopefully attached one of the links that we all are referring to. Margo has given us so many good tips that it took me a few minutes to find it. Just for future information; there is a search box at the top of each page in the header. I found the link by searching: fabric folding Margo

Good luck with the organizing!

Failing that, put up a question - hopefully in a relevant thread area - and Margo will probably be the first to answer you :wink:
