Frost and such

I thought we might get a frost last night -- probably north of us they did, but we've had the heat on and I threw an extra quilt on my feet last night.

If we were to do broad technique -- would we decide the whole year at one time and keep a list, or go month-to-month? And are we thinking 20" x 11"? The small size is very do-able. I really liked the freedom of the "fabric collection" -- I'm not that big on technique (since so many of mine end up in the trash -- most of them). But I'm trying to learn to be flexible -- so whatever works. I'll learn from it.

So last night I got tired of the clutter in the studio -- and started a bit of a cleaning / reorganizing project that took me into today. I finished about 1 pm this afternoon (finished being a relative term), took a shower and hopped in the car to go get The Boy. Anyway -- the studio looks quite a bit better and I can actually see my entire design wall -- something that has not been possible for quite some time (I shudder to think how long). It feels good to walk in there now. I removed non-art or quilting items that have a way of migrating into that room. I don't think I got every last one of them out -- but what a difference. Removing the magazines and extemporaneous books was huge -- and I took out all the boxes of photographs and gave them a new home. That gave me an entire shelf! I ended up with two full shelves, and an entire 4 feet or so of floor space under the shelves -- wahoo! Next stop -- the closet! But it can wait until January!
