Plastic shoe boxes are great for those quick, mindless sewing projects when you want a break with instant reward. I roll together the measured pieces for burp pads and store in view on my bookcase.
Scrapbooking boxes stack nicely and contain everything for a quilt design; shopping list; work-in-progress.
My favorite tip is having something ready to grab and go to work on when the mood strikes. Even a few minutes pressing units; trimming units to size;! or planning the next phase of the UFO adds satisfaction and progress
Kay -you've given me a great idea to try. I think I'll organize a pillowcase kit with some coordinating fabrics to sew up for my mindless sewing. Thanks, I needed that!
