Quilters' Spring Cleaning 30-day Challenge

Hi, Everyone!  I have a fun challenge to share with you today!

Amber of Gigi's Thimble and I have collaborated on another fun project- the Quilters' Spring Cleaning 30-Day Challenge!!

We have been loving the Willow QAL and wanted to come up with something new to do and this is what we thought up.

The challenge will begin on Friday, May 1st (that's in just TWO days!) and will end on May 30th.

It will include 30 tasks that will help you get your sewing space clean and organized!

We are aiming to spend approximately 30 minutes each day on a task.

Here is the list of tasks:

1. Organize a drawer

2. List all projects & kits

3. Organize rulers

4. Purge unwanted projects/kits

5. Sort scraps

6. Organize red, pink & yellow fabrics

7. Change rotary blades

8. Clean off one surface – chair, table top, etc.

10. Organize threads

11. Pre-wind bobbins

12. Organize blue & purple fabrics

14. Piece batting remnants

15. Organize black, grey & brown fabrics

16. Clean & oil sewing machine, replace needle

17. Wash or replace ironing board cover

18. Organize white & low-volume fabrics

19. List 12 WIP goals & make corresponding slips of paper. 

Each month pull out a slip of paper & work on that goal.

20. Organize patterns

21. Clean iron

22. Organize a drawer

23. Organize pre-cuts
