I a...Thank you for your lovely long comment Sharon. I agree about the plastic boxes, we would've been rich by now if we'd invented them. I have many things that I keep for sentimental value but as I get older I realise that my children do not have that attachment to them and they will find them a nuisance when we are finally gone. I have heard of people that take a photo of the sentimental item and then get rid of it. Probably a good idea.Linda Steelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15251668087604960451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8462786286812438647.post-72230636438517232032017-02-17T19:20:01.987+11:002017-02-17T19:20:01.987+11:00Thanks Robbie, when doing a big clean up there is ...Thanks Robbie, when doing a big clean up there is always a time in the middle that you have such a mess but there is no going back and you just have to keep going.Linda Steelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15251668087604960451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8462786286812438647.post-41285021825004259922017-02-17T12:19:20.280+11:002017-02-17T12:19:20.280+11:00Well, I'm impressed!Well, I'm impressed!

When ever I see glimpses into other people's stash/room/studio no matter where ever they live in the world the common denominator for storage is plastic tubs... I can appreciate your re vamp and clearing and what a big job it is... It is the letting go of the "old" and allowing the "new" to seep in and fill the space which can be the most daunting... I still have a piece of dress fabric which belonged to my Mum - she was going to make my "now in her forties" daughter a dress when she was the same age your grand daughter - as I hold it I hold those memories too... <br />But I also have a tub (hem, a rather largish tub) of fat quarters that "I was going to do something with" mostly bought because of their design and a dream "when I have more time in the future" Now I have more time and well, you would probably be able to fill the gaps here with reasons why I haven't done anything with them...<br />From what I am hearing you say I can see a whole new horizon in front of you coupled with the new adventures that that will bring... All the best and I look forward to seeing what comes forth from your studio...<br /><br />Sharon HSharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13354998238182080069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8462786286812438647.post-85027993466885770112017-02-16T19:53:24.392+11:002017-02-16T19:53:24.392+11:00It was a huge job Jude, but I love it now.
