Are Your Drawers Full?

Blast the Blasted UFOs
Creative people like us can think up more things than we can do & ideas tumble over each other like building blocks. Our enthusiasms are as liquids, borders always changing....it could be the weather, the seasons, holidays, or the neighbor that just had a baby that reverses the directions of our
s.
We can be raring to go one minute & wondering why the next. Shops full of fabrics & patterns bring out our wild sides! Our creative thoughts cause us to buy cowboy prints when we don't even like westerns. Store displays call our names & beg for attention until our brain cells jumble, causing us to grab up Fat Quarters & linen towels like cookies at a party. $ale$ are like a nectar to bees......& as we travel in packs by cars & buses, we buy in frenzies! Let's face it.....we sewing ladies have our drawers full of.......................................


Unfinished Objects....UFOs !


This is the year to do something about it.


Let's take.........................


Attitude......We didn't make all of those UFOs in one day, so we can't finish them in one day.
Change......It's okay for us to make potholders instead tablerunners.
Toss........We need to give it up....throw it out.......pass it on........or finish it!
Imagination.......This time, let us be more creative with new ideas for the old projects.
Organize.........We must put every UFO in it's own plastic, see-through bag.
Now.........All of us will spend 15 min. a day, everyday, on a UFO.
In 2009, we vow to Empty our Drawers!
