As I see your room, I thought, " thats about all my little ole' heart can handle" in wondering how I would ever want to leave that quilting room.. I dont even want to share photos of my little space, or the fabric stash I have - it makes me feel pretty sorrowful, because I see such beautfiful fabric in your stash, Eddy. But, I am not ashamed of what i do have, and I love to think my quilt projects for the pregnancy center are seen as beautiful, too. So here is the little bit I do have..
Photo 1 - old quilt magazines I found at an estate sale, mingled with a few quilt books, scrapbooking books, and my old " first love, Counted Cross stitching magazines. I can't do that hobby any more, but I can quilt my nose if I get to close to the needle!

Photo 2 is my shelf with what fabric I do have.. the purple container at the bottom of the shelf holds my scraps that become a work of art ( at least thats what I think anyway ).. To the right of the shelves, hold the quilt tops I have yet to hand tie ( can't afford to have them machine quilted , so I do the work with yarn and needle, haha ).. The basket holds threads, patterns I have printed out and stored in a notebook there..
Photo 3 - my best friend on difficult days where I need therapy to not cave into depression.. I love my simple sewing machine from Walmart..
Not much to show, but its where I find the greatest enjoyment when homebound on oxygen , or after healing from my heart surgeries. Thanks, Eddy , for getting me out of my rut tonight, and sharing what I do have, knowing others might not even have this much to show..

Glad you decided to show us your little space. And you're right -- it is more that many people have. It is so neat and peaceful-looking. I know you much spend many hours of enjoyment there. Those quilts on the shelf look very nice. Have we seen them yet?

GailG.. thank you.. As for the quilts ready to be completed. I think you have seen them.. not sure about the prairie point baby quilt, so will go thru my posts here to find out. if I have't posted it, I will.. I will also go thru my files of completed ones over the last 2 years, and post them for everyone.. Have a good day, and thank you for making my 5 am wake up email an encouraging one today.

Eddie, your sewing room is fabulous. I couldn't help but notice the wooden chair you have in front of your glass-topped desk. It looks very similar to the one I have which belonged to my parents and was used when I was growing up in the 1940s. I'll try to post a picture of mine later if I can figure out how to do it. Beautiful room!
