I try to finish cleaning the bathrooms by 10:30. I did that! So now on to more fun stuff.
I measured how much I have done on Mistress L. I have doubled what I had done from 1 3/4 inches to nearly 4. Yeah progress. I got the first line of the multi-color alphabet done. I'm not quite to the point of having some momentum but I'm getting there.
I had a mini keurig and it died. I probably killed it. I didn't use filtered water. Now I am reformed. I bought a new one and I'm going to keep it as long as I can and not use tap water. I love having a cup of coffee so quickly and easily. I'm spoiled.
jhm you are no reply but your question is interesting. It is a dilemma for many stitchers. What to do with charts you are done with?
Sometimes I stick them between two cabinets in my sewing room or on the bed in the computer room ready to be put on Ebay (they have been there for at least a year or two).
There is the politically correct answer. There is the Ebay answer. There is the friends answer. I have actually taken a sack full of used charts to a shop for anyone that wants them. They tend to pile up but are too valuable to throw away. What do you do with your used charts?

Wow - most of the alphabet's already done ... you have the speediest needles around! (and you're inspiring me to get going on Jane Turner again)
ReplyDeleteUsed charts? Unless I know someone who wants them, I usually tuck them into a folder, one after the other. Not doing anybody any good there, right? But it has come in handy a few times when I've wanted to stitch an ornament again to give as a gift.
Used charts - I start by seeing if any of my friends want them. If not, I take them to an annual retreat where they can be taken by anyone there. Any that are left are donated to an organization that uses them. It's always a good feeling to get rid of things I no longer need and someone else might use.
