If someone locked you in your sewing room right now, and wouldnt let you out till you used up all of the fabric you have in there, how many quilts could you make with it? I laid in bed last night, thinking about this, and I think I came up with a scary amount :shock: . What about all of you?

rotflol,I would die in that room and never finish

"If someonelocked you in your sewing room...."
It sounds like it would be a blessing and joy and I would have to thank God for the opportunity. But, just like Wolph, I would probably die and never finish. |

Like a hundred, except I know I don't have near enough backing or batting for that. SO, 10 finished quilts and 90 quilt tops. :lol: |

no cooking or cleaning, only sewing, I dare you to lock me up!
|
Too funny!!!! I'm right there with the rest of you who commented hahahahaha :D
But to answer your question I'd say about 20 quilts and 300 tops hahaha |
I wish
I would be busy and happy for a long time. The thought of having nothing else to do would be so nice. |
15 but it would be fun!
|
If I only finished what I have started now and didn't start any more I would still probobly die before I was done.
|
LOL It would never happen! My husband and children would first be running around wearing dirty cloths or no clothes at all, and second they would starve to death!
I could get 5! |
OMG!! I could probably finish 200 tops without batting an eye. Then I would have to go out to replenish thread and other essentials, like chocolate.

Well, I wouldn't die, but I'd get very, vey hungry! |
I would be buried in quilts. My cup would overflow, rather room.
|
I honestly don't know, I didn't realize I had as much fabric as I do until I moved (in August) I still don't have it all unpacked and put away. I'm sure I would be in there at least a couple of years :) :) twice as long if I have to do much frog stitching LOL LOL

I agree!!!! |
Does "sewing room" include ALL the places where fabric and supplies are stashed???
Well, if a port-a-pot and water were also available - - - - |
ok would they move my quilt books from the hallway into the room too? And would they throw thread into the room every so often? I think I could make a roomful of quilts- that would be nice for a while anyway.
|
Hmmm, interesting dilemma.
I guess I have enough fabric for maybe 30-50 quilts. Ok, maybe more, I don't know! Of course that depends on the size, but I will go with middle-of-the-road queen size. However, I do not have enough batting otherwise I have everything else. I have batting enough for maybe three queen size and two baby quilts. |
I'd get a lot of tops done, but no actual quilts. I buy batting and backing as I get ready to finish a project. I don't have enough room to store batting.
|
Could I go across the hall to another room. I also have fabric in that bedroom? LOL
|
Way more that I could ever use in my lifetime! I would not even venture a guess as to the yardage I have put away in my sewing room...the really sad part is no one in my family will ever use all I leave when I depart this world.

well this is sad.... but if you locked me in my sewing room it wouldn't take me long. i have enough for about 2 quilts... just started trying to build a stash. But hey, I went to Joanns yesterday and walked away with just 2 spools of thread. The lady at the checkout ask me if I closed my eyes when I walked through the store! LOL
|
Depends on the size. But in full size,probably 4.
|
I would be in heaven...........probably atleast 100 tops done and 4-5 completed. and as long as there is chocolate and other food stuff. I would make it, my DH on the other hand would probably starve...........and wouldn't know what to do without me. He would continue "KNOCKING" on the door till I broke down and came out just to satisfy his needs, all of them!
|
PLease do! I agree with alot of others here,i would die there and never be done

I could do at least 100 tops. But I need plenty of wine, chocolate, food and water, and a TV and DVD player!
|
Since I have the whole house to myself andI don't go out often [well to get more faric or notions] I don't need to be locked up to do my quilting. I will say even at the rate I go I still won't use up all my fabric before I die. I should stop buying but there is always another pretty, or interesting fabric to be bought. I love to piece tops just haven't gotten the quilting part down other than some FMQ. I am so glad I have this hobby.
|
I would be skinny when I emerged......LOL
I could easily make about 100 tops alone. In my closet I have enough batting to make one quilt start to finish. I would have to have someone slide the rest of the batting under the door, since I keep it in another closet. |
I would have turned into a skeleton long before all of my fabric is used up.

I just hope they left me with a bucket or something or I would end up having to use some of the fabric for diapers on myself. :shock: :shock: |
Wow would someone please lock me in my sewing room PLEASE. He he I love my family but man do you realize how much work we would get done!!! I could honestly say maybe 50+ tops.

I have something fabric related in EVERY room in the house, including the bathrooms because those quilting books and magazines sure make good reading material! :lol: :lol: :lol: |
I have a roll of warm and natural in the sewing room so quite a few quilts and lots of tops.
|
ya it would be great fun-no housework-no paying bills,etc
