    Gee, my husband spent 4 years in the Air Force, his mother was a cleaning nut/freak, and yet he leaves most of the cleaning up to me, even though I have severe arthritis in my back, hips, knees and ankles, that I do things one handed, as I need to lean on my cane for balance. Oh well. He's not going to change after almost 43 years, so I'm not holding my breath. The problem I have is that my sewing area is in my bedroom, so I have to clean off my bed after sewing because it is the only place to put things on when I'm sewing other than a small area on a table where I have my rotary cutter mat.

    My bedroom has so much clutter (mostly quilting related but admittedly some other stuff) that you would be really distracted from seeing the only thing I want you to look at.
    You don't look at the room around my quilts, and I will do the same for you. :thumbup:

    I just take pictures where you cannot see anything but walls. I really love the quilts staged outside.
