Smallest Room, Most Living Things

This is my studio floor. There are more living things in this room (many on the floor, as you can see) than in any other room in the house. At last count, 3 of the 4 cats, a puppy, and a small child. There's also an unwanted spider on the ceiling. It's the smallest room, the hottest room, and I am having to step carefully over all these beasts so they don't squawk at me.


Puppies get very flat when it's hot.


Limbo (the cat) is really pissed off at me. I've picked him up unceremoniously and dropped him on the floor and yelled at him about 14 times in the last 24 hours. He wants to sit on my fabric and he wants to sit on my carefully ordered bits of Wonder Under. He's driving me nuts. I put him where he is now so he would be out of my way. He's really irritated...you can tell.


I left the room for 2 minutes to get water, came back, and he was sitting in the middle of this pile of fabric.


This pile is the fabrics I'm using in this quilt. It's surprisingly lacking in bright colors. Lots of grays and browns and earth tones (despite the blurry photo, which has achieved a bizarre fluorescent and unreal glow). Not sure what the whole quilt will look like, because I don't do color studies. It's all in my head. Scary, eh?

And what the heck does this mean? Bizarre...yes, I used this fabric in this quilt.
