The April program for our Cobblestone Quilt Guild is going to be digital tours of various quilters' sewing studios. I volunteered to be one of the studios on tour as long as I could have time to do a "little" straightening first. So, after thinking about it for a fair portion of the night and mentally re-folding yards and yards of fabric, I got up at 5:00 a.m. and started the actual 
process. There's something therapeutic about the folding process and you get to touch and feel each piece once again and dream about the quilt it may be a part of SOMEDAY. Very nice. However, after working for a while, I realized that the rest of the shelves looked pretty bad. I guess it's a study in contrasts--you have to experience both sides of the pendulum for either to have meaning. And now I have a major hint as to why a friend who came to my studio a couple of weeks ago commented on the disorder of my fabric. I hadn't even noticed.

Judy - I've been out of town for a week and you've been busy blogging! Love the little sunflower in the most recent post. Slow down on the tidying up frenzy - the studio tour is the MAY program - this month is a longarm showcase.

Your messy shelves look better than my neat ones!
