Well, I am not sure if I am actually getting anything cleaned. Its more like I am finding a million projects that are UFOs. Last night I found an applique piece that I had attempted many years ago and so I spent the evening finishing it up. I did manage to make a blank spot in my quilt room. Everything is stored in big storage tubs and I went through several of them and culled out things I do not love.
I have more fabric than common sense, it seems. Fabric hoarders buried alive! That was the thought that came to mind yesterday as I sat sorting piles of brights from one of my bins!
I also found the wedding quilt that I started for my husband 19 years ago. I took it to work with me and hand quilted on it when I got the chance. I had forgotten how pretty is was and working on it felt really good. My husband mentions the quilt once or twice a year. I know once I do finish it he will never allow it on the bed because the dogs would destroy it, but it is nice to know he wants it.
I went to a quilt show this last weekend and of course I bought some fabric. It is a panel that says "What Cancer cannot do". I'm going to make a quilt for my Grandson. He has Leukemia. He just turned 15.
Well, its early morning and I just got off work. I worked a double and I should be exhausted but, I'm not. I think I'll grab another cup of tea and head off to my fabric hoarders den and see what kind of trouble I can get into today!
