I could have spent the weekend doing many creative things. Maybe I could have started one of the things on my list. I could have sewn something in the two days, but no. I had to get my work space in order first. Two days of cleaning and it is just about back to the way I want it.
Why two days? Well, I'm a messy crafter. I mean if I'm sewing and something else pops into my head I stop what I'm working on to start what occurred to me. This usually happens a lot which adds to the piles on my work table, not the mention my ever growing list. So, when I clean I am really reorganizing the projects, cleaning up bits and pieces pulled out for all of them, and generally finding what I miss placed.
This weekend the thing that took the longest was my embroidery floss. I wanted it to be organized into the case I have especially for it. That meant spoiling all of it onto embroidery bobbins. One at a time. Through every color. And I have a lot of them.
So that's how I spent my weekend. Hopefully I will have something more interesting to post about tomorrow.
