Well, here’s my bag of scraps. Not empty, but I’ve sure made a dent in it. And not much of it has gone into my pre-cuts! This bag had mostly really tiny pieces in it, but I use a lot of tiny pieces, so it works out great for me. From this bag, so far, […]

I’ve finished a few quick-to-finish things already this month, which means I’m already starting to check some things off my list, and I’m still chipping away at that pile in my spare room. This is a BIG downsizing year for me, and […]

Mid November already?? And winter has hit us. There’s snow on the ground and ice on my windows as I sit here at my desk typing this. I’ve done a lot of sewing this fall, and I’ll be back later with more about that, but for now, it’s organizing time. I guess we can call […]

Nearly halfway through October already! I can’t seem to get caught up. Did you manage to get rid of at least 14 things over the last couple weeks? I did more than 14, but stopped counting after I reached 14. It sure felt good to get rid of some things that were just laying around […]
