This is so me. And there is finally a day where nobody calls and I'm home alone and I'm too sick to get out of bed. :( Happens every time.

I have a little sign in my sewing room that says, "Creative people are never neat." Keep quilting and disregard the mess!

My husband settled the problem for me,when I was qulting by hand on my loom. After breakfast, he would ask me if I wanted to quilt. Then he would take charge,
watching the kids, answering the phone and preparing the meals. He made sure no one would disturb me .He would bring me a glass of juice when he thought I needed a break! I do miss him

Someone once said: A creative mess is better than tidy idleness!!

Not just when I'm working on a project. :lol:

I thought I was the only one, whenever I get really busy my dh or my son or one of the dogs need my undivided attention.
If I'm not doing anything they are busy. I think it's like Murphy's law. i vote for the gagging and tying up. LOL

It is a club of many, Welcome!

Welcome from Newfoundland, Canada. My career for this past 25 years has been Cooking and I am a messy cook. Someone told me once that a good cook is a messy cook, The same goes for quilting. A messy quilter is a good quilter.

You know when I gt married 29 years ago my husband taught me how to d laundry and to cook his way(at least how his mother wanted it done) Now neither he or his mother remember how to do anything with the house They cant even remember to rinse dishes before putting in dishwasher

Gee that sounds familier
