About the time I'll be leaving here we should be getting some snow flurries right here in Gainesville, Florida. It's been 20 years since I last saw snow in Gainesville.

Yes. I have been there to see quilts, althought not this particular show. I can't tell whether these were at The Dairy Barn or not. It was fun to be at the Dairy Barn this past Summer.
Are art quilts your 'thing'? Or traditional quilting?
Have you attended QSDA in Columbus (Quilt Surface Design Symposium)?

I'm so happy with it now that I love going in there. And because it did take me so long, I have managed to keep it organized so I won't have to go through all that again.

Donna, does FlyLady have a site? I gather from your comment she does but how do I get to it to see her system. I too am not great in the follow thru area but would desperately like to change. I have to get my room at least emptied out to see how the tables I bought will fit because the 90 day return period expires 1/19. I'm cutting it pretty close since I'm supposed to go with DH to a class over in Grand Rapids Tues evening thru Friday. Plus I've GOT to finish this little quilt for a swap. It has been so fun to read what everyone is doing. I actually WANT to get started. I think it would take me 15 minutes to get from one side of the room to the other. Once I get going, it should be better, I just have to START!!!!!
Rosie, I agree with you. There is no way I can post my before pictures, even though it looks lots better than it did. For me, it has to do with a little five letter word, SHAME. How did I ever let it get that way? I don't really know any of you all personally but I have it in my head that no one could possibly like me if they knew what it was really like. I admire each and every one of you that has posted their 'before' pictures. They give me courage!
Hope everyone has a great rest of the weekend.

Don;t be afraid to post the before picture, I felt shame too but once I posted I sure got busy and fixed the room up so I could post the after pictures. I think most of us make a huge mess when we are involved in a project. Right now I am making a log cabin Quilt, that is 8 fabrics laying out, lots of strips and scraps are hitting the floor, but because I cleaned up before I started it will be easier to put things away when I am done
