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.

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