A little at a time..

When I first moved into my renovated studio, I spent a lot of time folding and ironing my fabric and carefully placing it on the shelves…

It was SO neat and tidy.

Let’s move 5 years down the road……

Not quite as pleasing to look at!!

I knew that it was time to do some straightening, and I also wanted to pull all of my solids out of the regular stash.

But I simply couldn’t summon the energy to commit that much studio time to the clean-out.

Then I got the idea to work on it while we watched TV at night. I set up a small table and brought down the stacks….two at a time.

And before I knew it, I had re-organized the whole wall…..

It was amazing how quickly the task was accomplished by doing it two stacks at a time!!

I also learned that I didn’t have as many solids as I thought that I did…..

Hmmmm…. maybe that means a trip to the fabric store??

So what is the moral to this story (besides the joy of fabric shopping)??

If you have a BIG, DAUNTING task, break it down and just do it!!
