I’m not even calling this Task One this time — haha! I’m fizzling out on posting at all, let alone posting two organizing challenges! But I’m hopeful that things are going to level out sometime, and it won’t be quite so crazy around here. I did get rid of a couple small piles from the […]

I didn’t accomplish much on the last challenge. I guess leaving it up to myself didn’t help me decide on just exactly what […]

I haven’t been sewing much at all, only running the longarm, and not even doing that as much as I should. I was off to such a good start, but events have conspired to knock the wind out […]

So many of you had wonderful stories about your own vintage machines. I know they’re popular, and most of you remark on how well they sew. I went back and updated the post with […]

Since we just did The Final Countdown, and I’m still not quite done with one of those tasks, I’m taking it easy on us this time, and choosing something that might help […]

Once I DO start working there, I expect it to stay about as clean as my cutting table does! (See the reflection of my design wall in the window? — since I took […]

The pile I was going to tackle has doubled in size, instead of getting any smaller. That’s because I’m still moving stuff over from the old studio. Will it ever end?? How do I still have so […]
