Scrap/Sewing room is Complete!!!

 This room had gotten out of control during the Christmas rush and quilting marathon in January.

 Digging around in fabric to find just the right piece was a pain and left a mess. When I was done with a project I just threw everything back in then moved on to the next project.

 While I have been careful in my spending where magazines were concerned I still had a pile that was holding me back from finding the pattern I wanted to use. The ones I LOVE are now in page protectors house in 2 binders, the rest are in the recycle bin.

 Little scraps are no longer shoved here and there or setting in piles on the floor. They are now in clear plastic shoe boxes sorted by color. Holiday fabric has their own larger bins, I no longer have to dig around in Christmas fabric to come up with a nice pink, green or whatever color I am looking for.

 This is my time out teddy bear, he keeps me on task. I set this little fella for an hour and see what I can get done under the pressure of the ticking timer.

 TA DAAAAA, its done. It's not just clean but it is now organized in the way I think and work.

Everything has a place and space that should make clean up a bit easier. The side board from DD# 1 is the perfect height to cut fabric and it doesn't have a ton of storage space that will tempt me to shove more in it!!

Can I just tell you how thankful I am to have this whopper of a challenge done!!!! It has been a LONG hard week and several days earlier in the month tackling diffrent organizational ideas that will work for doing things my way. Having the excess removed from this room feels like a breath of fresh air has blow through. I can now work in peace and not have the mess making me frantic over what the h... should I do next.

I still need to pull together more fabric for the "traveling Sewing Box" tomorrow then post the photo's. I will do the drawing on Tuesday so get you name in the hat if you want a chance!!

Off to bed for one last day tomorrow with no little ones running around. I have lots of work to catch up on for quilts that HAVE to be done this week.

How are you doing in your decluttering challenge? Only one more week to go and we can all go on vacation!! Ha I wish!!!
