Baskets, continued

This basket holds my 2010-11 quilt magazines.  After a year they are put in date order and placed in a storage drawer.  Several years ago I went through a decade of quilt magazines, clipped the articles / projects I wanted to keep and tossed the remains.   

This year I decided not to renew any magazines, quilting or scrapbooking.  There's so much now available on the Internet.  And if there's a special project or article I want,  that issue can be purchased at a local shop or on line.

There's no point in having a fabric or magazine stash if you can't find what you are looking for.  To be easily used, both need to be organized and managed -- which includes weeding out.
