Since I have spent most of the morning doing housework but would rather have been sewing, I thought I would ask all of you…. What’s your process when it comes to housework/cleaning vs sewing/crafting? As I’ve gotten older I have found that I generally prefer my environment to be somewhat put together and uncluttered in order to focus on sewing. However, I will say that every now and then I get a wild haired idea about a pattern or project and I cannot rest until I give it a try No Matter the state of the house. So, what say you? Answer below and explain in the comments.

In the spirit of sewing machine maintenance (see last week’s needle changing post) let’s do another quiz. WITHOUT GOOGLING the answer: How Often Should you Clean/Dust Out Your Sewing Machine? I will post the answer along with a little video tomorrow. Let’s hear your thoughts!

Who’s up for a little quiz today and some honest confessions???? HOW OFTEN SHOULD YOU REPLACE YOUR SEWING MACHINE NEEDLE???- Answer below in the survey PS..no shame here!

Drop a comment below if you have done anything similar I will post the answer And a little more info later tonight. 🕰️
