First, here’s what three boxes and four bags of fabric scraps look like dumped out on Claire’s bed:
Now the hard part: how to get this stuff into two plastic totes in a way that might be called organized—by colour, light and dark? by weight, light and heavy? or by usefulness, useful and “why the hell do we still have this”? What I actually ended up with was bits and scraps (in green) and costume resources (in purple):
Oh, the box of leather is still a box of leather. And don’t worry, baby, I didn’t throw anything out. Not that I wasn’t tempted.

That’s hilarious…I recognize some of the fabrics. I think some must have come from when I gave Jodi a bunch of my stuff when I moved up to Toronto in ‘93/94. It’s so hard to part with the little bright bits isn’t it? They’re like flexible jewels in a Dragon’s hoard…Good job organizing! ^-^
