Rhymer - Quilting Waits While We Renovate

that must be the reason i haven't done much quilting. my sewing room is a mess!! of my own making though.
i've been cleaning out plastic tubs and more. magazines go next. when i have more energy.
then back to quilting.

I'm in the middle of a house redo too! I said my sewing room was off limits to anything being stored there during this time. DH rented a pod so everything that needed to be out of the way had a place to go. I told DH I like my sewing room just as it is so no need to redo it. (I'll have it repainted later when the rest of the house is in order.)

I can relate . I had similiar conditions ..... I started to crave just touching textiles.... cutting ... hear the machine....I had this overwhelming need to take my rotary cutter to something.. ( yes I do mean textiles).

I like the hand piecing suggestion and second it. You will be surprised at how soothing hand piecing and hand quilting can be. You can "kill two birds with one stone". You can make the quilt and ease your stress. Best wishes and HUGS to you.

I'm in the closet shooting this. Those floors are heated! DH did it himself. The heating part, that is!

I love my tub. I'm not the only one! I can actually soak up to my chin without having to stick my legs in the air!

Just think of all the fun you will have when its all done. That's what I;m having to do. I gave up my sewing room so my girls could have their own rooms :( Well it was done out of love. Now I have just the kitchen table to work on.
