Washing all the fabric in the studio.

Last month I decided to wash all my fabrics to remove

the chemicals used in processing.

What an endeavor.

One I have too much fabric.

It is making me think twice about going into a fabric store.

I will need to live to the ripe old age of 100 to use it all.

Two it has been a challenge not to stop and start creating

something. The beautiful fabrics give me ideas and they

flow under my iron. The urge to stop and start making

is hard to resist. I am about half way now.

I am determined to finish by the end of the year.

After all January 1st is when I start next years quilts.

I have a flower theme show and the Chair show in

August. Today my helper and I will do the Christmas

stockings. We will stay away from the irons for a week.

While off to stuff stockings.
