My bed is loaded with stash. I have organized the different fabrics according to project plus extra stashes in separate baskets. They take up a full bed and the big baskets are on the floor. I threw a sheet over it all so my cats won't get their hair all over the fabrics. In the meantime there is an extra bed in the back bedroom. But I do have a quilt (future project) for the full bed.

Well, shame on all you quilters for not having a quilt made by you on your bed (tee hee)!!! That's easy for me to say since I don't have either kids or pets in the house, and my husband has been well-trained to turn back the quilt if he needs to sit on the edge of the bed! I change the quilts as the mood strikes me and here's a photo of the one currently on the bed - will soon change it to the Christmas quilt.

Oh what a sweet quilt tester! My quilts get "loved" like yours on your bed too. Much as I think I should train them to stay off the bed......they always end up there by morning anyway.

I and my DH sleep with dogs and cats so nothing good goes on the bed, old blankets get washed often, extra sheets, etc.

What kind of dog is that? It is most adorable. I mentioned earlier what a DD! (Darling Dog)

Unfortunately, since I have two large dogs that share our bed, I have to use a store-bought comforter. One of the dogs loves to sneak back upstairs to sleep during the day so I can't even use my quilts then.

I have a scrappy one (a king size) on my bed and my cats and dog love it as well... Even though the pooch doesn't sleep on the bed - she finds a way to pull it enough to lay on part of it... I had a bunch of three squares I did not no what to do with and when I broke my wrist I could not cut so I randomly matched and sewed them together... I have a queen size bed but the king size hang off enough that if the dog pulls on it everyone is still covered...I have a small quilt frame and a mega quilter that really helped fm quilt it... it has been washed alot... After ten years of quilting I decided to at least have one on my bed... ha ha

This one. It's king-sized. I'm making a quilt for our queen-sized guest room bed now.

Here's the one on our bed, my first big quilt & it's still our favorite!

Hope the pic shows up, still new at this, so bear with me!

It wasn't quite finished & quilted here, but good pic of it to share!
