busy weekend
I have been bitten by the de-cluttering bug lately so I've been keeping myself busy.
This weekend I have:
Made curtains for the kitchen using stash fabric.
Freecyled my old sewing machine, lawnmower and a big old suitcase (not all gone but it will be).
Contemplated other items that should go to Freecycle.
Rearranged and doggie proofed the spare bedroom to make room for Athena's crate.
Moved spinning wheel #3 to the living room.
Moved some stuff from spare bedroom to my bedroom
Moved crate to spare bedroom, now Athena has her own room.
Went through closets looking for fixtures around the house and assessed purchasing needs. (I had to buy one curtain rod, the rest is still in good shape from when I bought the house.
Dug through stash to find fabric for two more window projects, placemats and possibly potholders if I have large enough scraps.
What I did that was fun:
Continued to knit on my True Blue Sweater using Rowan Little Big Wool. It is knit all in one piece, starting at the back hem and working upwards, increasing for sleeves, casting off for neck, working over the top, then doing the oposite down the front.
Saw Ironman (excellent BTW)
Played several hours of Tabula Rasa
Caught up on watching recorded TV shows (almost)
recieved a friend's music CD de-stash (the universe hates a vacuum)
Still needs to be done?
Too many to mention, but for starters:
Go through closet and get rid of clothes I don't wear and donate or Feecycle.
Dig through all fabric stash and see if I have more fabric suitable for curtanins in the remaining rooms of the house.
While digging through fabric, decide if there is anything in there that I will never use.
Caulk around windows all over the place.
Install water line to refrigerator for ice maker.
