My so called sewing room

My sewing room is haunting me. I even walked in it yesterday and looked at the piles. Piles of fabric, piles of stuffing, piles of patterns, piles everywhere except on the treadmill that I haven't used in months. I keep that free so I will use it. Or so I tell myself. Sigh. I need another sewing job to kick myself into gear. I've been wanting to make a table runner and placemats. I've got plenty of fabric to do it with, but I haven't wanted to be in the sewing room to do it. I must clean it.

I've also been thinking about making a hand pieced doll quilt. I want something that I can work on in front of the TV with my hubby. He gets a little whine-y when I go upstairs and sew after work, unless its a paying job. Plus, I like to sew to the TV and I don't have one the the disaster area I call a sewing room.

Definitely pick a project that will allow you to stay in the same room as your hubby. I crochet while watching TV with John all the time. Its relaxing, I am getting something done,and I am spending time with my husband. Everyone wins.

Sweetie, you can just send some of that fabric over here. I'll just take it off your hands. No problem at all! I'd do it because I love you:) ha ha!
