    May Purge

    I don't see that this has been started so here is May's Purge thread.

    Had a donation pickup yesterday so 25-30 items out the door! Very motivated to continue, but it's actually getting harder to find the "easy" stuff to let go.

    Today is half-price day at Goodwill (it's every other Saturday), so I use that as an opportunity to drop off donations at the same time. Doesn't have to be a big bag, today's drop-off will include a new belt (came with a pair of pants and I just didn't like the belt) and a DVD movie.
    I've learned that it's easy and quick to donate a few items instead of waiting until everything in the house is gathered - Just Do It!

    And today it's quilting day. I just sewed together 13 pieces of leftovers into a quilt backing for a 49x65 inch quilt. If you know a quilter, a 4" strip is NOT trash! I've got it loaded on my machine and I'm ready to go!

    Say goodbye to a short pile of leftovers This quilt goes to my charity group next week along with 2 other small ones I quilted yesterday. Fling Flang Flung!
