I have been in a de-cluttering and cleaning mood again. It might be too early for the "Spring Cleaning" but I think a "winter whip-up" is needed as well! Time to whip my schedule and organization back into shape. This week I have completely cleaned and re-organized my room. I cleaned out the closet and storage area, and re-arranged the furniture. I created a work area for myself, so that I can more readily get to my MANY sewing projects that I have waiting for me.
Here are just a few of them:
1) 2 "little house" dresses for a friend
2) 2 wrap skirts, one for myself, and one for my daughter
3) 2 denim/BDU patchwork quilts for the boys (Recycling old blue jeans, denim skirts, and BDU sets.)
4) a flannel patchwork quilt (Recycling old sheets and flannel shirts)
5) a long list of projects I am going to do for an online shop I am going to open. (To include a variety of aprons, art kits, dish carriers, and plenty others)
My goal is to get at least 1 personal project, and 1 "shop" project done every week. Of course, the quilts may take more than a week, but I want to have significant weekly progress on those. I used to do a lot of sewing, and kind of packed away the sewing machine, and forgot about everything. Though I have certainly been hanging onto the fabric! In my cleaning and organizing sweep, I sorted out all of my 7 large rubbermaid bins. So, I have decided that it is time to get to it! :-)
On my "Making It Home" group, we had a challenge this week to clean out the fridge and reclaim the space! I think a weekly challenge there may be in the works. It is good to keep each other on task :-)
Have a blessed weekend!
