Too tired to do the happy dance this afternoon....
I thought (questionable action on my part) that moving storage boxes out of the sewing area would be a little project taking an hour daily so I could actually spend the remaining time sewing.
Yesterday, I puttered around and gathered a few things together. Since I have more blues than anything else, I put varying yardages into the bottom of a storage box and used a smaller tray to hold the fat quarters neatly. One and done. Then, I did the greens. Two and done.
This morning, I picked up where I had left off and did the Christmas fabrics; Up North fabrics; brown-tan-rust; black; black and white; brick red-USA-Americana; red; orange-gold-yellow; etc. Before I knew it, I had another brainstorm!!!!
How about moving the storage boxes of pre-cuts out of the sewing room so the room didn't look so junkie and cluttered! Great idea, Kay. So ----- my hour this morning turned out to stretch a bit to 3.5 hours.
1.5 inch strips light and dark; 2.5 inch strips light and dark; jelly rolls; layer cakes; 2 in strips; 3 inch strips; 6 inch strips; log cabin strips in silverware type dividers; etc. are stored on plastic shelving in the finished basement. They are grouped conveniently and out of sight.
Hopefully, I won't change this new system completely by the time I get back to this project on Thursday! The pinks and purples will be calling me at that time. :-D
