Hello, friends! Today I’m sharing the Quilting Life Planner & Workbook May 2022 post and video. And the organizing section and topics I’m sharing today couldn’t have come at a better time for me personally. With all of the organizing I’ve been doing in my sewing room over the past several months, I still hadn’t addressed the inventory process of my stash. Additionally, I’m sharing my thoughts on a terrific listener question on personal sewing time and distractions.
Quilting Life Planner & Workbook May 2022
May Planning Topics
As I mentioned above, the topics for this month were very timely for me and came at the perfect time in my organizing process for the year. Here is a list of our organization tasks for this month as found in the fifth section of the planner:
- Systems for stash management
- Large cuts of fabric inventory
- Precut inventory
- Systems for scraps
- Scrap management progress pages
Viewer Question: Making Personal Time a Priority + Handling Distractions
After the April video and post, one of our viewers/listeners asked a great question about prioritizing personal sewing and quilting. While this reader owns a longarm quilting business, her questions really apply to all quilters who want to make time in the sewing room. She also mentioned the issue of distractions from well-meaning friends and family who don’t understand the time commitments of those who work from home.
