I'm slow

Man, am I slow getting this thing up and running. No real excuse. I am finally setting up my sewing area (we moved about 6 weeks ago into a smaller house) and am sorting through my stashes--both yarn and fabric and through patterns that I have saved forever and never used. I am hoping to start teaching sewing soon and want to have a pleasant and tidy area to teach in. That will be a first! We tend to be messy, mainly because each of us likes to collect something, such as fabric, tools, CD's and DVD's, legos, and on and on. Seems like we spend a lot of time organizing and weeding out and then just fill the space up again. Sigh.

I have been very good this year as far as the stashes go. I have bought very little yarn and have used up a lot of acrylic yarn on kitty bankies for the shelter cats. I also used stash yarn on fingerless gloves and have several sweaters planned for more stash yarn. I haven't sewn much, but also haven't bought any new fabric. I'm such a good girl-lol.
