I know many of you will look at the before and after pictures of my Quilt Shed, and think out loud, "That's an improvement?!" But trust me, it IS a great improvement, and my creative spirit was giddy with relief when I dug in and dug out!
The before pix of the North and South 'wings' of the Shed. I had just dumped my stuff into the fray when I came home from my first Home and Garden Show. I
had started to clean a tad bit, as you can see the two blue boxes on the top shelf with their fabric exteriors and 'garbage can' lace decorations.

My dye supplies are in there somewhere... |
Clutter and chaos!
|
Well, that was BEFORE.
Here are the AFTER pix. |
Deep, deep piles...
I got the ribbon chain idea from a popular scrapbooking site-very festive! :?}
|
NOW I know what I actually own-there were several moments of surprised discovery,
"I didn't know I had that!" |
|
The blue boxes are done, filled with blue fabric, of course. |
All other boxes are filled with their appointed color, waiting for their 'clothes'. | | |

My dye supplies! Wahoo! Let the classes begin! I am ready! Note the Alexander Henry jungle ironing board cover hiding in the corner-only the best in the Quilt Shed! |
|
Now I can see what I have for the next show, and what I need more of... oh, and note the stacks and stacks of 'vintage' quilt magazines? I did the math. If and when they all sell for fifty cents each, I will have over $400 in my pocket! |
|
The New north wing. I found the floor! |
|
The New South wing!
p.s. Don't look in my garage. My "too much stuff" from the Quilt Shed had to go somewhere... | |

Happy, happy quilter am I! My husband oohed and ahhed properly over the transition and said my new students tonight would be impressed. I reminded him they didn't know the before situation, so they would probably still think, "Oh, MY!" when they walk in!
