Double Foundation Chain
I first came across Double Foundation Chain in the Encyclopaedia of Needlework by Thérèse de Dillmont.

At the end of my post on 50 Litres Of Sewing Clutter my favourite comment was a push for me to get onto more decluttering.
And that's exactly what I've been doing.
Now I won't bore you with the endless details this time. Just a few highlights.
I dumped it all on the couch to show you how I've been going (what's left of it that hasn't hit the rubbish bin that is).
This pile includes no less then four bags.
Clothes I bought but have never worn.
Outright junk.
A belt that came free with something I bought. I will never wear this belt, it can go.
A top that I really really wanted, over 20 years ago, but never wore. I briefly flirted with the idea of upcycling it into a bag....then I looked at the 4 bags I'm getting rid of and I decided not to upcycle it after all.
The top is sitting on top of yet another UFO from that horrid navy stretch fabric (remember the unfinished pants?) This time it's a jacket, will I never be rid of the stuff?
There was lots of other stuff too. Here's what it looks like once it's all bagged up.
Do you enjoy reading about what I've delcuttered? I don't know, but I'm hoping someone is at least finding it entertaining in a train wreck kind of way, and I also hope that I might inspire you to some of your own decluttering.

Regardless, I share with you the stuff that is happening to purfylle my life right now, today (or at least this week-ish), and decluttering is what is happening in my life at the moment.
Could you fill two bags by decluttering?
Well done! I like that little black purse though!

Me too, but I've never used it and it should go to someone who will which is why I'm not keeping it :0)
