Today Linda www.all-stitched-up.blogspot.com showed us what was on her table (and isn't that giraffe really cute?) - She asked what was on our tables - so here goes:

Can you believe I just cleaned it off last night. There were lots of scraps - that are now in that red pot waiting to be sorted by color, some wool that I put aside a long time ago and just got out to finish it, lots of containers with scraps & rotary cutter & ric-rac, my bin with blocks I'm currently working on, somewhere in there is the beginning of my first PIF. I had only one PIF person sign up and she has dispearred from blogging. My thought is to surprise some of my blogging friends if I don't hear from her soon (if you would like to join in let me know), also last night I cut out some more blocks for my whirlygiggle top, one of my treasured posession - a little leather and felt box that was my grandmothers - she kept her embroidery floss in it and now so do I. She gave it to me when I was a little girl and her eyes were no longer able to sew. My huge table gets messy quickly - I'm always amazed at what I find on it when I tidy it up.

I know how you feel. It's amazing how quickly my table gets filled the day after I clean it off.
If I can't find anything in the house you can guarantee it will be on my cutting table. LOl

Love and hugs Gina xxxx

Your table looks sooo tidy compared to mine, and I don't mean the one I showed on my blog. I pulled that one into the dining room to work. The one in my sewing room needs another tidy up.

Hia Lynn, I know the feeling. You put the offcuts down for a spare 5 mins when you can sew them together to be a little gift bag or something then the next thing rolls onto the desk and before you know it you need a team of trained archaeologists to help you go through it all.
