Last year I decided to go down a new trail of making items that I wanted to make vs sewing down the stash. What happened was a hybrid. I did sew what I wanted and I did sew down the stash. I also allowed myself to buy fabric. Almost all the fabric I bought was sewn up. A real accomplishment for me.
I also purged fabric from the stash which was another accomplishment for me. I decided to let go of fabric so others can enjoy it. If it sits on the shelving unit and I avoid it, it isn't being enjoyed. What fabrics I did sew, I enjoyed using it as the projects were ones I wanted to make.
This year I will be going down the same path as last year. I will be making items I want to make using both the stash and new fabrics. I will keep track of the fabrics used and bought. If I buy fabric, I need to use it the month it was purchased.
January
My goal for January is to clean part of the sewing room. I want to have my space that is clean, tidy, and organized by the end of February. I will be sewing each day when I finish an area. I cut out 2.7 meters of fabric last year to make an Edwardian wardrobe for the dolls. It was to give me a jumpstart in January while I focus on cleaning.
