Organised fabrics

This is how Toronto artis Grant Heaps organises his fabrics - kept from the light in boxes, but with swatches of each on the outside - something to try at home, perhaps? -

Images are from here, where you can see more - and read about his work. His day job is wardrobe coordinator for the National Ballet of Canada, which commissioned this tutu listing the names and dates of every ballet the company has performed since its first performance 60 years ago, in 1951 -
This is one of his quilts using song lyrics -
