So far I get by just folding it and stacking it. Scrappy bits and FQs
are in one area, and everything bigger in another. Some of it is
stacked next to others that it plays well with, but I'm not the sort
to arrange by color like a store would. The only exception is for the
space theme fabric which is all in it's own bin no matter the size.
