Studio thread holder

Hi, the group I belong to on line "fiberarts of southern california" recently had a discussion about how to store thread. I thought I would share with you what I came up with to store my thread. Right now it is sorted into types rather than colors, but that could change. The storage units were gotten at a garage sale and they are old card catalog drawers from a library. They are right behind my sewing machine so I can just reach back and open a drawer and get my thread out. They are protected from the sun because they are closed and work great. Hope you enjoy the photos. I also got news that I have two quilts going to Houston. One for the "Tactile Architecture" and another for the "In Full Bloom" special exhibit. I am doing a very happy dance right now. I cannot post those pictures until the exhibit opens in October but it gives me the incentive to keep on trying....Have a great day, the sun is shining and all the flowers are blooming.

Here is a quilt I just fininshed for a challenge for my local group. It was called Cha-Ching. It is hanging in a local bank, so they wanted something to do with money, and something from a hardware store that would cha ching when wiggled. Mine is called "The Color of Money, and I found some great and colorful money from other countries and incorporated them in to the quilt. I will try and take some other photos of the whole group and post them soon.
