    I found my ironing board in the studio!!

    had to uncover it to press some blocks

    the rest of the house needs a clean.

    but, as someone said, everyone has clean clothes!!

    ....and the kitchen has recovered from miss 12's cooking adventures

    I just need a few more hours in a day

    I feel the same way. A few extra arms would help. I figure if hubby doesn't like the way the house looks then he can help with cleaning instead of sitting in front of the tv or playing with the kids, he calls it giving me a break so I can clean. Phooey on that I will quilt if he is keeping the kids busy, I can clean any day but quilting has to wait all the time. LOL.

    That sounds like me in my younger years, now I just have the grandchildren coming for a 2 week visit, 3 yrs. and 6 months, come check out my mess in a few weeks. I wouldn't trade it for a clean house, the mess will always be there, it doesn't move itself. The grandchildren won't, they live 1100 miles away. Oh boy, what a grand time I'll have. My DH never complains and if it bothers him then he cleans it.

    So my house isn't the only one that has taken a hit since I started quilting? Great!

    Now I don't feel so bad. And have you noticed that the farther along the project is the messer the house gets. So if it is really messy I must be almost done lol.
