Today starts the beginning of our Sewing Space Organization Challenge! YAY! New to this? Here's an overview:
Each Monday from March 2021 to August 2021, I will post a video on my YouTube and an update here on my blog discussing this week's tasks. Each month will have a theme and each week there will be tasks that accompany that theme. The goal is to have an organized and well-functioning sewing space as we head into the fall sewing season. :)
Ready to get started?
March's Theme: The Tools We Use
Week 1: Our Sewing Machine
Our sewing machine is our biggest and possible most expensive tool in our sewing space. It deserves some love!
Tasks:
1. Show your machine some love by cleaning your machine! Regular maintenance is so important to the health of your machine and to the enjoyment of our craft. An ill-working machine can cause frustration. Clean it! Keep it happy.
2. Organize your machine feet. Make sure you have all the parts and accessories that came with your machine.
3. Read your manual. Get to know your machine better.
4. Play! Try out something you have never done before. Maybe try new stitches or new feet or both! Have some fun with this.
5. Organize your machine needles.
Let me know how you are doing. I would love to hear from you!
I try to clean my machine regularly, but I have to admit, I probably don't keep up with it as much as I should! This is a great reminder.
