I agree that it needs to be moved. I've been keeping an eye out for a thread in the BOM section, and only found this one because I broke down and did a search.

I started it in the main quilting section, but mods moved it here. Perhaps someone could ask if we could have it moved back?
My first post was meant to say more than just the link but the UPS guy drove in so I just posted the link.

I have my fabrics chosen, Olive, bright blue, orangey-red, and teal. all from stash, only enough for the smaller quilt but I don't need any more big quilts anyway. I've been working from stash since 2001.

The fabrics I chose were as close to solid as I could find in my stash. Each year I try something new for the mystery and I though this year I try for something in the Amish/Modern flavor. NO GRAY though I'm the poster child for depression and gray anything washes across me like a dirty ocean.

George Carlin had a piece about 'stuff' and what we can carry with us if we have to go somewhere, and then if we have to go somewhere else from there until you are down to what is in your pockets.
I am taking care of my mom in a borrowed house with no stairs and lots of light. Great for mom, but I don't have my quilt room.
I have a card table, the sewing cabinet w/vintage machine, the small ironing board, and stuff for the mystery I could grab from home in the 5 minutes I felt it was safe to leave her in the car (88, late stage dementia)
I am so grateful my stash is organized so I could run and grab! Took two weeks to do it a couple of years ago but worth every minute!

More than anyone wanted to know but I am happy with what I've pulled together in the empty living room. I'll get a picture of my fabrics and sewing area up soon.
