Did you happen to see "Enough is Enough" on TV the other night regarding a quilter who was making quits for Quilts for Valor. She was doing it in her living room and had over 2,000 lbs of fabric, that's right 2,000 lbs. Well, it was her daughter that had a problem with it because she could not bring family to visit. This poor woman loved quilting and giving and her daughter felt because her living room looked like a quilting jungle that her mother's priority was quilting and not the family. I felt sorry for her (the mother). I am sure the per say "family" only visits ever so ofter, however, Mom quilts everyday and loves it. So, Don't gasped at the mess, it's your mess and you LOVE IT.
