How are you at organizing? I get to a point… if there if too much stuff I cannot work…my home studio was starting to look like a dumping ground for lost fabric!!! I know..I know…you all wish you had such a problems…but between the wool scraps and the fabrics leftover from making 6 quilts in a fabric line and then there is 10 years of it…it starts to bust out of everything…so that is the first area I have been attacking…Everything is off the floor that’s been piling…then everything goes in a drawer…I will then sort the drawers when I have it all “in” and hopefully can purge some of that…once I see what is all there…
So look for some fun things from me this year…like Friday is Give-Away Day! Even though I want to keep it all I am not going to…so look for planned and spontaneous give-aways on Fridays!
I find it is nice to go through your projects, your threads and your fabric that you are not ever going to use….donate it…give it away…share it with friends that may not have a big budget for their art…Make your space pretty…make it functional…make it a joy to sit in and amongst your things and create! I’m ready! I love stitching in my space…
…all clear to start the next project!
Then there is another thing in my life….it is my time…I need to organize my time…I need to schedule certain things for certain days and stick to it…blogging, Instagram and facebook posts as well as meetings..and maybe do some Facebook Live stuff….let me know if you want to discuss certain things…I will also keep you informed of my schedule too…maybe we can meet at a show or at an event, like our retreats or classes!
I am doing pretty well at the health part…I will do a post on this…I have to keep up with those grandkids!!!
Stitching Everyday…I thought I would also show you my daily stitching journal quilt. I am two weeks in…I keep a little sketch book/journal if I do not have time to stitch something that day….I write down what I want to stitch and do it when I can…but I have been pretty good about doing it almost everyday!
Then there is the “Create” tin project! How many of you are getting this? A lot of you!…THANK YOU! They are on the way!!!! I am getting this ready so I can do a sheep a day/ or 7 per week as well….we will start a facebook group and keep each other inspired with this was too…If you missed out you still can get one of these...click HERE
So are you ready? If not…get your stuff organized and let start stitching lots of beautiful things in 2020!
Guess what starts tomorrow? Yup..Moda Blockheads 3! Corey Yoder will kick us off with her block and we will be stitching a block a week on wednesdays! Come back here tomorrow for details!
