Hi everyone.
I guess everyone is busy sewing.
It's too hot here to do much of anything.
Over the last week, I've cleaned out my sewing area.
I took a lot of breaks because of the heat.
Finally finished it yesterday.
I'll tell you...it was a real purging!
I threw away, gave away,sold.
I packaged up bags of felt, bundles of scrap batting and fabric and scrap pieces of muslin backing.
For the scrap pieces of my favorite fabrics, I cut them into strips.
I dumped old containers, old blades, dried-out fabric markers, twisted scissors, chipped rulers and a bunch of other stuff.
I went through my patterns and techniques I had printed from the internet and put a lot into paper recycling.
Also went through my mags and brought 2 bundles to the local library.
It feels like the first day of the school year when everything is fresh and there is such promise for future success.
I now have many empty drawers in my cabinets.
Of course, this will lead to new fabric buying but I've promised myself that I will only buy what I need for a project.
Like a new school year, we'll see how long the promise lasts!!
I have 3 bunches of strips....cut 1.5" ,2.0",and 2.5" wide.
Would like your suggestions on an EASY pattern (meaning a pattern that doesn't need a lot of concentration)
Looking forward to hearing from all of you and seeing more of your FOs.
