There is no way this would happen without food, wine and chocolate!!!! Besides, I have a window to crawl out of and neighbors who know my needs!!!!!!!

Well, I get to go house/cat sit for my daughter in Florida for 6 months and I'm taking all my stash (except for the huge hunks of backing fabric) with me. My goal is to bust all my stash while I am there, so I will hopefully come home 70-100 quilt tops. Thankfully I have a longarm so when I get home I'll be putting the hours on that to get the quilts finished. Gee, I will have Christmas, birthdays, weddings and babies covered for YEARS!!!!!

I can definitely relate to this one! And would you believe I am signed up for more classes before year end:
10/20 - RaNae Merrill - Spiral Mandela Quilt
10/30 - Precision Piecing using Sally Collins techniques
11/12-13 - Robbi-Joy Ecklow ... Fun stuff; artsy
11/18-20 - Sharon Schamber ... 3 DIFFERENT techniques.

Let me finish these classes and then lock me in; it will be a wonderful life sentence!

I just have to laugh over the question because I happened to clean up my sewing room including putting away a "ton" of fabric i the plastic storage bins in my storage shed. So what's left out in my sewing room, I could make maybe 1 quilt at this writing.

If I were locked in my sewing room, before I could quilt I'd have to clean it. Then I could make twenty or thirty quilts. If all my material were kept in my sewing room I would be very very old and very thin when I got out!!!

To that idea I'll just say it'll be better than the rubber room I'm currently locked up in. :P

I was going to ask if you wanted to come clean my sewing room... then I saw where you were located. So maybe I could come sew with you and we could open the windows and just enjoy the weather too! Aloha.

I would love to be locked in my sewing room to just quilt and dream and create. Have no idea how many quilts I could turn out, dozens and dozens I suspect. Good way to lose some weight too I think. But I would have to have a small tv so I could watch my Nascar and football while quilting.
