Unfortunately during a move you may realize the old structure doesn't work within the new structure, so you start all over again. All I have done in the past decade is teleport from one room to another, but I feel your teleporting pain!ceblakeneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09502970543025898915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-55819085381899529352020-09-25T12:30:17.672-04:002020-09-25T12:30:17.672-04:00When I am changing around ANY cabinets, shelves, e...When I am changing around ANY cabinets, shelves, etc. and cannot finish the job in one swoop I affix Post-it notes to the doors with new contents names.

Using my "discoveries" to make quilts for community service projects. When the one on the design wall is done, the Unity quilt goes back up to complete. That is the last full size quilt for me. Going to continue concentrating on donations and smaller projects until I get to scraps undercontrol, haha. Somehow they want to pile up on the cutting table.goldengirl46https://www.blogger.com/profile/07845336400820701033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-49074233493150362652020-09-24T23:25:42.871-04:002020-09-24T23:25:42.871-04:00Love the 'Lola' picture.

I’ve been through everything at least twice. I have to set a timer or I get going and want to do the whole house!

I remember wearing that shirt and I am 60. What fun memories old fabric brings.<br />Thank you Bonnie for your everyday stories. I really enjoy the videos of that Zoey girl . Just really brightens my day to see her upside down with her toys. That’s the first thing I do in the morning after I fix my coffee.

You used to post just your Quote of the Day on FB, and I forwarded it to my friends. They loved seeing it, so we are all wondering if you will be doing that again anytime soon.

Set my timer for 15 minutes, three times in a row, and then the 4th 15 minute block, I stop and sew or whatever. I can get a lot more done that way than just trying to tackle the whole mountain at once. It just makes it not feel so overwhelming. And I get to sew. jonrock53@mtaonline.nethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15465371545591900894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-79401272520624521942020-09-24T13:02:23.002-04:002020-09-24T13:02:23.002-04:00I have that fabric...a small amount still in my st...I have that fabric...a small amount still in my stash.

I feel the longing of just wanting to sew something simple or mindless sewing of string piecing ( which isn't mindless at all) instead I've been involved with an art quilt such a time taker and learning my new longarm quilting and yes the never ending organization of quilting. I'm wanting to change the sizes I've been cutting. I find I'm overrun with 5" squares, not cutting that size again. Also wanting to redo how I've organized in the past as things just don't seem to flow like I want. <br />So Bonnie, I am relating big time with where you are right now. I've also moved stash from another location. Sigh....onward and upward. Thanks for your blog, it's such a comfort to me in many ways. Wish I could give back to you.Rhondahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16943641604062801009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-24761701897974173212020-09-24T11:32:06.584-04:002020-09-24T11:32:06.584-04:00I just acquired a new (to me) dresser that fits pe...I just acquired a new (to me) dresser that fits perfectly in my sewing room. I have slowly been moving stuff over to it. The drawers are deep, so I am thinking of making some trays to live on top of trays, so that I can fit more in in a organized matter.

I was in such a hurry when I unloaded mine that I'm going to have to go back through everything and re-organize it. While doing that, I can set aside those fabrics that are ugly (but still useable!), odd sized and determine where I'm short in particular colors, to be cut up into the sizes I use. I've been sewing scrap quilts for so long that I need to re-organize to see what else I can get into those drawers now, and get everything organized more efficiently. The best part of sewing scrappy is those are all cut & already pressed - and I can get to the fun part....sewing! Thank you for all your ideas, which I adopted years ago (and still adopt) -- makes it SO much for fun quilting. Deb Ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10378407890740558509noreply@blogger.com
