I finally got around to organizing all of the things I have. What I do is lay them all out, sort them by month and then put them in ziploc bags with with the month written on the outside. I try to create themes, like red or hearts for February, but I don&#8217;t mandate what my team members make, so sometimes I have to make due. Nobody has ever complained.<\/p>\n<p>When the month comes along, I can grab a ziploc, stuff it in a bag and go to the meeting. Usually, I have to do this in advance so I can take a picture and send it to Maria. She needs info in advance for the hybrid part of the meeting. Theoretically, I can put the bag together at the last minute and just go, but I almost never do that.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_55171\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-55171\" style=\"width: 196px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/20220212_130608_wm-sm.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-55171\" src=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/20220212_130608_wm-sm-196x300.jpg\" alt=\"BAM Door prized organized\" width=\"196\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/20220212_130608_wm-sm-196x300.jpg 196w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/20220212_130608_wm-sm-670x1024.jpg 670w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/20220212_130608_wm-sm-768x1174.jpg 768w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/20220212_130608_wm-sm.jpg 872w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 196px) 85vw, 196px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-55171\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">BAM Door prized organized<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>I used the fabulous Poolside Tote that Angela made for me as a thank you for organizing the officer gifts for a few years.
