Joyce H. from San Luis Obispo, California tells how she keeps small pieces organized.

I work with lots of small pieces when I quilt. I keep them together in either their sewing sequence or by their cut size to help me keep track of my pieces.

I've found that good old-fashioned spring clothespins help me keep my pieces together and in order.

I, too, am a big fan of spring clothespins. I use them for lots of things, like closing food wrappers, bags, and linings in boxes. I hang herbs and plastic bags in the pantry with them. I couldn't run my kitchen without them!

I use them in my sewing room, and I even use them in my office for holding receipts that need to be entered into the computer.
