I take my box of scraps and start stitching fabric together to make new fabric which can later be used for purses, etc. I also use up old (but not dead) spools of thread in this process. or I stitch strips of selvedge to a muslin backing...etc.

I haven't quilted in a week because #1 I don't have a project that I'm really interested in and #2 my room is such a mess that I need to organize the clutter before I can start something. Today is the start of a new week and the organization has to come first. Maybe by the end of the week I'm be back at the sewing machine.
