Ok - I DO have a new one that no one else has mentioned. Although I don't have many visitors, I do allow smoking in my house. The SHAME!!!! of that one. The quilts and fabric do have their separate room, however. I used to be like Miss Meticulous but have relaxed in my old age. I used to want everything perfect. Now I just want things done so I can start the next one. (Kinda compulsive that way - I do finish things) I've been doing this for so long that those little missed points add up to nothing for me and for the most part they are right on anyway. I don't wash the fabric first. I wash the quilt with some vinegar. Works for me. Yes, the bindings are always hand stitched and the quilting is done by hand 98% of the time. The good part ?? We all get to choose how we do it!
