How's everyone doing with organizing? This past week I got busy working on some collaborative pieces (finished one!, made good progress on two more) and also some of my solo pieces and now every horizontal surface in my tiny sewing studio is covered.
My art studio is no better. That's where I have my big table that I use for squaring quilts, ironing yardage, building stretcher frames and whatever else needs doing that doesn't fit in my sewing studio. The table is currently piled with: a quilt that needs ironing and some some remedial handwork along a couple of seams and a label sewn on so I can enter it in a quilt show; a UFO log cabin top that I am considering cutting up to make a Convergence quilt; some fabric scraps that need to be put away; assorted rulers; Go cutting dies; and several pairs of scissors. On the drawing table next to it is a shoebox full of stabilizer scraps (which have somehow exploded partway out of the box), a box of batting scraps (ditto on the explosion), more scissors, and two pastel drawings that I have been working on. The drafting chair is now home to a UFO and several collaborative pieces that I'm doing with DH who is a photographer, the reclining chair that Bubba likes to sleep in while I'm working is filled with quilts that were in a gallery show in December and still need to be put in storage. I could go on, but I'm sure you get the picture.
Given all all that mess, my question is this: Which is most in need of re- organization--- these two rooms or the disorderly mind that seems to be the root cause???
