Sorry! If I got the housework done first there would be no energy or time left for quilting. I do the bare necessities of housework and occasionally do a deep clean in a selected area.

Quilt of course. Housework will wait on you.

What is a clean house? It will be there waiting for you when your quilt is done or you have another day off. If you really feel guilty (NOT) about not cleaning your house, quilt until you need a break and then clean the house some. But, quilting comes first.

Cleaning is always on the back burner at my house. Quilting comes first.

Is there really any choice to make? You can always clean later. That mess isn't going any where.

That gives me an idea. I need to make a quilt for my housekeeper to say thank you for the quilting time she "gives" me. She's a friend. If I didn't have to pick up before she comes to clean I'd get buried! I'd almost rather quilt than breathe.

I face that agonizing decision almost every day.
Everyday the house loses. HOWEVER when the snow is gone, gardening will give the quilting a run for its money.
