Three steps forward sometimes mean at least two steps back. While the list is moving in the right direction, every now, and then it takes a step in a direction that wasn't planned.
Yesterday, for instance, I was ready to tackle a sewing job that is not a favorite when I discovered I didn't know where my interfacing was and I couldn't proceed without it. Before I knew it, I was pulling all my stabilizers, battings, and fusibles out of my closet. WOW! I had no idea I had so much! By the time I had it all out, I realized that I had to purchase a new storage bin to hold my stash of - well what is the correct noun to cover what I found? In the meantime, I grouped like things together in clear garbage bags so now I can find what I didn't know I had!
Okay, did I find interfacing? Nope. So I thought I should put the project in its appointed place and start something else. Of course, when the fabric was replaced in that pile of similar projects, I found the interfacing I had been looking for before getting distracted by organizing all that batting and stuff! Frustrating on the one hand, but on the other hand, a task was completed that I hadn't even thought of doing!
Hmmm . . . wonder if I can put it on my list so I can cross it off?
YES!
As far as I'm concerned, YES, you can. It's part of the organizing the studio!! And that's great. Someday I'll have to try that!
