In the House of a Quilter

I'm in the final throes of the assembly of my Dear Jane quilt top.
It's huge, so I'm doing the ironing downstairs on the big ironing board with the "real" iron as opposed to the mini iron in the sewing room.

At one point I left the room and when I returned I was struck by this.
Seriously. No staging.
Poetic, isn't it?

How many quilty projects do you spy?

    I count 5 quits in the room. Very cool. I really like your grandmother flower garden. It is so bright. I love it.

    Hehe, Mommarock noticed the same thing as me. I was counting the table runner as a quilt, so we both have the same total. :)

    At least 5, but probably at least one of those pillows is quilty.

    This is kinda what our dining room table looks like right now.

    two pillows, table runner, and 4 quilts?
    So colorful!! I am thinking of the grandmothers flower garden - haven't made one in years - which method are you using?

    OK. So now I see how you can keep your sewing area so clean and well organized- you have moved everything to the living room and dining room.

    What a gorgeous sight. Your Dear Jane looks amazing as do your hexagons. Love the colours and contrast. I need to work with white more often.
