We just got back to Washington from Arizona. We have homes in both places (although our AZ home is much smaller than our WA home), so I have sewing machines in both homes so don't have to haul those. I decided I'm tired of hauling rulers back and forth so have doubled up on a couple of the larger ones. The biggest problem is fabric. It's gotten so expensive I hate to have to buy it whenever I need it. We have a plane and when we were packing it, we were getting a little too close to the weight limit, so a friend who is coming back to WA from AZ later than us said they would bring a couple of my tubs of fabric with them, thank heaven. Part of the issue I had this trip was that I and a group of my friend here at QB that do round robin quilts made a bunch of quilt tops for a kids camp here in Washington so I had about 10 quilt tops to bring home so I could quilt them in the next couple of months and get them to the camp this summer. Isn't that awesome that this great group helped me make charity quilts?

I think in the fall I will do as mentioned above by several people and plan a few projects and precut them. That should help a lot. It's impossible to figure out what you might possibly need in a six month stretch of time if you don't preplan, so guess I'll see how that works. Don't want to complain too much as I know how lucky we are to be able to get away from the cold here in Washington every winter.
