I think everyone has what works for them. I don't do anything until I have containers to seperate things into. Why try, Then I take a section and start. I also label, drawers containers, etc. Then work a little each day till compleated. In my younger years I could in a day now I go a little slower haha.... I have a spot for knitting, crocheting, sweedish weave, genealogy, and even me. Oh yes, counted cross stitch. I get grrrr when I can't find something. Bottom line hon, you need to find what works for you? (((hugs))) We know you can do it. :)
