sometimes I call it my dungeon, cuz when I am down there - I forget the rest of the world exists.
So!! Because we moved a few things - everything looked - well - stuffed. I was talking with my friend Donna about it, about how I felt all discombobulated... and she had some very good questions for me.
What is your primary goal for this area? and How would it make your work easier?
On the drive home ( from hanging with Donna) I started envisioning my room.
And then! I enlisted my boys and we went to work!!!! And of course - while you are moving things you see other things that need to be organized, and then you find fabric - and you start dreaming.... and it was ( and still is) fun!!
Look what I have found! I always think I have seen every fabric in the world - but apparently - I have not!
A sweet lady had given me a bag of Y2K fabrics - as I was not a quilter then.....
Quilters vs Quilters ( nothing much really changed here but the ladies clothes)
This one - writing down vs Computers.... a constant battle in our house! I still think people should learn how to Write with a pencil.....
And this one - all these presidents. I just thought it was cool - and wished I had it when we were learning presidential history.... Recognize Anyone?
And this one!!! The glory days right? I think this one will be fun in a QOV....
Enjoy your Sunday!!
PS.... I found more plaids.
PPS.... I have started cutting them....

I'm in that discombobulated mode most of the time. Thank Donna for the advice for me please. As far as the moving around and finding other things. I call that my "If You Give a Mouse a Cookie Mode"! Some great memories looking at the fabric you found. Have fun sorting out the rest today.
LOL....
Your PPS literally made me bust out with a giggle! Goof ball.
Happy Sunday
When you're done there would you ome help me? I've still got boxes to unpack in my sewing room and I've totally stalled......
What a fun find! Those should be really fun to stitch up.
Do you feel like Vasco de Gamma or Christopher Columbus? You made some pretty good discoveries.

I, too, am facing a major reorganization. We are getting new flooring and have decided it is a good time to move the longarm downstairs and the sewing mess back into the bedroom upstairs. What a job this is going to be...
Love your sense of humor!
I had a bit of a reorg that day too. Must have been in the air. I love finding treasures!
So cool to find such things while doing something else you want to do! These fabrics are really neat to see bc I was not quilting at that time either!
