Don't get me wrong; I am grateful to have a large studio with a walk-in closet, until I have to clear out the clutter. After several days of cutting, arranging and dyeing fabric pieces to fit into my enlarged design pattern, I realized I needed to clean out my studio.

| Fabric Frenzy! |
I had piles of previously auditioned fabric, threads, pins, freezer paper patterns everywhere! I had abandoned my fabric folding method and any decluttering efforts. Indeed I hadn't thoroughly cleaned out my studio in gasp YEARS!

| My Sewing Table, UGHH!! |
So I stopped making art for a couple of weeks and separated out those garment patterns and fabrics from the 70s 80s and 90s that I know I will never use. I'm not done yet, but I donated 3 cartons of stuff to Goodwill, and 3 large shopping bags of unwanted fabric to a local fabric store for used by quilting classes at the women's prison.
I really am burned out on cleaning, sorting and organizing and I need and want to start creating again!
