Join in the Chookshed Stitchers Challenge for 2024

 

Deana is hosting a challenge for the Chookshed Stitchers and anyone else really that wants to join in that blogs. 

If you read the post above you can find out the details. 
I had attached the logo if your joining in you can add it to your sidebar and use if when you post about the challenge. 
Go on be brave or crazy (like me) and join us. 

I've made my little list of 10 things we'll need to complete in 2024. However, because of my renos downstairs and then the family living in half my quilting studio upstairs the list will be a little different to the lists of others who are focusing on quilting. My focus is on Studio Decluttering and Maintenance to enable our group to make quilts. I have broken the huge jobs down into manageable tasks that I hope friends can help with and it will start when the family moves out in mid January.
  1. Quick tidy and clean to start the ball rolling moving furniture back to where it used to live.
  2. Deep clean of the banisters with a toothbrush and oiled cloth.
  3. Deep clean of the drawers that store my cut squares. These were not sealed during the last part of the painting so are quite dusty inside.
  4. Move and clean the treadle machine so it is again usable.
  5. Empty the cotton reel holder (holds about 100 reels) and dust the nooks and crannies.
  6. Clean all sewing machines, find homes for the ones I no longer want, clean and put new needles in the ones I will keep.
  7. Find homes for all finished quilts.
  8. Dust inside all display cabinets. They got dusty inside even though they were sealed.
  9. Put solar resistant film on all front and back windows.
  10. Make a quilt !!!! at last.
How about that for a list???

For more on my progress through these tasks take a look at the dedicated page in the page list above.
