Welcome to My Mess

I have deadlines quickly approaching. I went looking for the Ninnie Nines quilt top that needs to be quilted, like now. There it is in the basket under the sideboard, tucked behind the design wall. OK, the backing fabric is there, along with some solid white (that I thought was lost), and backings for three other tops. Why is that paper bag of batik scraps under there?

I haven't found my bowl full of basting safety pins yet. Not in this pile on the piano bench.

Not in this pile of crap on and under the table behind the loveseat.

Not in this jumble of mess on the dining room table.

Which means it's down here somewhere. Yikes!

(Why is that football toy box in the middle of my stuff?)

Keeping it real, folks!

Added 2:20pm: Found the pins!  Remember that bag of batik scraps under the sideboard? Under the scraps, I found the bowl of pins, machine quilting gloves, and all sorts of goodies. Yay!

My Mess

To be fair, this is just one of my many messes! The plan is to CLEAR this table today. It is visible from the front door, which is really unacceptable. I played around in photoshop to add captions. I'd rather sit here in the sun than work down in a dark basement. But I should only bring up one project at a time. Ha, Ha!
I finished trimming my half square triangle blocks last night for Judy's Quilt Along. I'm happy to have step 2 done early.OK. Time to get to work. I hope to have "after" pictures for you later!
Ciao,
Tina

P.S. I bought a Neti pot this week after reading the Shnoodle post and comments. I actually feel better with no drugs! Pete wants to try it to see if it helps with his allergies in the Spring.
