Did you get your sewing boxes all cleaned out and organized? Did you even need to do this task? Maybe I just gave some of you a week off, huh? Mine is much better. All that’s left in the bottom is my current applique block, and I found my spool of black thread! I’m all […]

I can walk into my spare room now, and I know what’s actually in the room, which helps if I end up looking for something we still haven’t unpacked since the move! Uff! Long way to go yet! But it’s time for […]

I’ll keep dealing with it […]

I wasn’t going to continue this again this year, but so many of you asked for it, and I still need it so badly my ownself, I decided to keep it going. I’m basically planning to run through most of the same tasks we […]

I know that I did, but it also made me realize how much further I have yet to go — in my entire house, actually! My efforts last week were feeble, at […]
