Someone asked me on my blog one time how I kept my fabric so neat on the shelves. You can see the pastels are very neat and the browns below are a little messier.
The answer is that when I need some fabric from a shelf I bring the whole pile down to my sewing cabinet so I can go through it one piece at a time. Then I restack the pieces I'm not using very neatly and replace them on the shelf.
The pile that was on the table is now neatly back in place.
This is the batch I pulled out to cut into the batik kits.
I cut 35 more fabrics yesterday, up to 85 total now.
We got 15 minutes of rain yesterday so I pushed all of the pots out far enough from the garage to get wet. I have to document what a wet driveway looks like since most of the storms have missed us or have occurred at night and the driveway is already dry by morning since it was a light rain.
A goldfinch came by right after it finished raining. He was pretty wet. You can see raindrops hanging from the flower petals.
A few minutes later Mrs. Finch joined him for a treat of coneflower seeds.
