Fluorescent lights everywhere. I am glad this is not the only photo I have of the total quilt top, because this one just doesn't cut it. The colors are so subtle and so light that anything other than indirect sunlight just isn't going to cut it.

Much about the walls is unfinished right now. I have yet to hang the pegboard, and I have things thumbtacked to my design board awaiting the pegboard ... once I decide where it needs to go.

More empty wall space. I do not want to hang more things until I settle on a final layout, and the room is too new for that. Once I know where the pegboard should go, several other things should fall into place.

I've been working on this quilt off and on for some time, but nothing about it is mine. I struggled to name it, because I knew nothing about the creator or why she chose the fabrics she did.

Luckily, there's a term for this type of task.
