Yesterday we had a good turnout at the first Mini Quilt Class for 2013 at Cairns Craft Centre where everyone worked on this cute little "Kimonos" quilt.

Now we come to chaos that I need to sort out - lots of paper, magazines and projects. We moved around a lot of furniture and added some new shelves so everything ended up on the work table to be gone through and either discarded or a new home found in the studio. Peter often wonders what the plastic box industry would do without me but when you live in the tropics it is the only way to keep everything clean and they stack under tables. After all this is sorted the serious fun can commence!

I too have loads of plastic boxes and cardboard boxes so you are not alone. That is a cute collection of owls on your tree and they look most at home. You are starting the FUN theme off well.
Hi Frances!
I too have way too many containers! I have been purging for 2 yrs and while I have cut my stash, there still seems to be too much!
Take care, Leslie
That's a lovely mini to make in a class. it looks great. I think your owl collection is multiplying in the dark!! Good luck with the sorting!!
We all have boxes or containers to keep our stuff in. Don't know if you use them, but I always keep those little gel packs you get in a new bag or shoes - they're great for down here to keep the damp salt air out of your things, especially needles, pins etc. I also have them in my plastic containers with material. Not as hot here a in the tropics but we do get a lot of humid days and nights. Maybe Peter can source them for you as they would be good to use up there.
Oh golly, what a lot to get through! I hate it when I get to that Part of a tidy up job! Never mind you are on the down hill slope now! I always find a good tidy up is quite motivating, I look forward to seeing lots of creativity pouring forth.
Cheers

I think plastic boxes are a great invention, I could not be without them!
