(I absolutely loved the border wallpaper but when my daughter was about 12 months old or so she woke up from her nap and decided to peel it while waiting in her crib :-( )

Last ones...boy do I need to get moving!

Well here goes ...

I ventured into the sewing room to take BEFORE photos. New at this on-line stuff so hope I got these uploaded to Flickr correctly.

It's amazing that the photos look so much worse than I thought the room looked. Hopefully tomorrow I will feel up to be moving a bit more to start cleaning-up.

Yesterday I catalogued all 342 of my magazines. Today I started on the books, I'm at 103 from the two bottom shelves, three more shelves to go. Then I'm going to make a list of all my embroidery threads. :thumbup:

I might actually get organized before I go back to work on Feb 1st, but how do you keep it organized when sewing?? :?:
I so want to be like Eleanor Burns and throw stuff over my shoulder and have someone else clean it up.

hi watterside you sure are brave... went to the address site you gave us. I love all your ingenious ideas on how you use items in ways that are different from what they were meant to be used for. Very clever and creative. I have been tidying up my sewing room for I don't know how many months and I am still not finished yet. I have been transferring all my stuff from inside the house to the outside rooms. I also do a lot of other things i.e. cards, decoupage, sewing etc and so I have to find a place for all the paraphernalia that all my hobbies have. have a great 2010. Thanks for trying to get us motivated - I am not a procrastinator, but I need motivation.... :O) ciao

But if we get organized we will never find what we want or make such beautiful quilts any longer :roll:

Hellooooooo,
Sure I'm with you... I need some incentive, but can we start Jan 2nd?

I'll try for before/after pics, but am new to this board...soooo....

Good luck in advance with yours. Has anyone else joined the annual clean-up?
Regards,

Of course we will quilt again... we may even find UFO's that are almost finished!!!! :-))

Quilting with a friend will keep you in stitches.

I want to join!!! I'll take photos tonight if you can help me upload them. I have started by putting all my Christmas fabric in a bin and that still sits on the chair! What a grand idea and this will help motivate me to 'git er dun'!!! LOL

This is good! We all need the support.
