Quilting and other Things

Yvonne at Quilting Jetgirl is a hosting a mid-year review of our goals for this year.  So its time to look at where I am with these.   Quilting  1.  Clean and organize quilt room Trying this one again         - Finish sorting the area and get rid of the things that need to be donated or thrown out.  Sorting works best when I work on just one small space at a time.  So I'll divide the area into a number of sections and plan times to sort each of those areas.  It easier than dealing with the whole room.   I was making very good progress until the end of March.  I set a schedule of at least 15 minutes a day three days a week and until the end of March achieved that.  Then stopped.  Not sure why but things are improving.  A bunch of boxes set aside for donation got delivered to either the Thrift Store or the Restore depending on the contents.  So I'm no longer tripping over them.  :) ...
