December was a very busy month in the studio. I had to complete 4 photo memory Christmas trees and a baby quilt before I could start on my Christmas cards. Since December is also the month of deliveries, several needing signatures, I also needed to spend a bunch of time in the house. The result was a quilt room in chaos and a family room not much better.

Today I packed up everything that was laying about the house and carried it out to the studio. When all was said and done, this is what I was left with.

I started the cleanup today and made some real progress. I hope to have it finished by Thursday. I need to begin dyeing some fabric for a class I am taking at the end of the month. Unfortunately I can’t dye with the studio this messed up. I would end up with dye all over everything.

The really funny thing is that this happens almost every year. This year Bill asked me on Sunday evening if I would like his help straightening. As much as I would have loved the help. I don’t know if I could have even begun to tell him how he could help.
