then aren't YOU one to encourage??? LOL :mrgreen: Better watch out, after I am done, we may need to assist you

Sadly, its going to take more than a week, as I work full time as well....

However, I DID just sort through all the ribbons and lace I have and have divested myself of about 1/3rd....

Think I will box up by light and dark and sell it cheap!

Maybe a few boxes at the PO and a few $$$ will motivate...

thanks for your encouragement!

A hint to the wise quilter: Keep the chocolate IN the sewing room!

Okay. I looked at the photo and it looks like mine looks after I organize. Well, no, because the fabric has taken over the sewing room and I can't actually sew in there anymore. there is also fabric in the guest closet, and a couple (okay 5) large tubs in the living room, with one sewing machine on a table and the other on my frame. I am afraid to take photos, because it would document how much crap I have. I have gone completely insane buying barkcloth on eBay. So, boxes and boxes and piles of fabulous, vintage heavy cotton, just waiting. We need to make the house bigger....

Good luck and just remember to smile. I need to clean my sewing/office room. Its not fabric or quilting supplies that is my prob since I don't have a big stash....people just seem to throw things they don't know what to do with in there! Grrrr....
