Day # 20

Needles and pins.
Now, you probably have lots. In lots of different spaces. On pincushions. In drawers. With projects.
Your mission today, should you choose to accept it, is to gather all the ones that are not in active duty. IF you have them already gathered in more-or-less one place :
Go through them. If there are any packs or tubes or ... with needles that you really don't care for, put them in your donation-box or toss'em !

Oh, and make a mental note (or a big, visible sign) reminding you that :
When a needle or pin is uncomfortable bent, you toss it.
When a needle or pin looses it's good "gliding-quality" you toss it.
When a needle or pin "grips" the fabric, you toss it.

Neither needles or pins are family heirlooms (thank you Linda), so ... whatever you don't enjoy and which hampers your enjoyment : get rid of it ! one way or another.

If you have NO TIME : Take the closest-to-hand pincushion and take out the ones you don't care for / never use / don't need / that are bent or in other ways wrong.
You don't have to be in the sewing-room to do this, you can take the pin-cushion to your TV-room or wherever else you physically need to be, and do a wee bit of multi-tasking :-)

You can do this
