What it feels like to have an organized closet...

All I can say is, "Wow!" I was lucky enough to receive the several hours with a professional organizer by the name of Jennifer Linnig. Not only did she make the whole process fun, but I ended up with a beautifully organized and clean closet. We emptied out the entire closet from floor to ceiling. Then we sorted. Then we put thing away where they belong. There are lots of empty hangars from the stuff that will be FreeCycle'd or eBay'd and I actually have room to hang everything up now. I even found a few things that I had forgotten about. Now I just need to do the same thing with the rest of the house and I will have a perfect house. (Well, I can dream, can't I?)

A first for me on eBay

Well, today I received a question I had not been asked before. Someone saw this music fabric that I have for sale on ebay and wanted to know how much it would cost to sew a necktie out of it. Hmmmmm. Well, how much have you got? Seriously, though, it is difficult for me to put a price tag on such a task as it is not my typical sewing project. That fabric would make a really cool tie though.

I was really torn over whether to even agree to do such a project. On the other hand, it is money. So, I quoted what I hoped was not too unreasonable a price and we'll see what happens.
