I shudder to think of how hard it would be resisting the fabric urge Oksewglad if I was working in a quilt store. Would I at some point go ho hum not more time spent with fabric. That's hard to imagine. The fabric would be calling my name every free minute!

I have to dare myself to go into the wilderness that is my sewing room and corral all of the errand bits and bobs that moved around as well as unearth the assorted fabrics that migrated into the corners. Bags and boxes to be emptied and order to be created out of chaos. The mind is willing but the rest of me wants to play here.

Welcome annieshane!
My quilt space is looking chaotic too but the I've been allowing myself to get sidetracked when I start to sort it out. How quick my sidetracking is a little embarrassing!

SO I managed to get the table half-way clean but the ironing board is overflowing. Do I go put the fabric away? Of course not. Hey - the table is clean, I can start quilting my Halloween wall hanging. Sounds logical to me..... AND it is a UFO.
