Replace hexies with circles…and the crochet with a tapestry…and we are about there! My remote never makes it the table ‘cos they are in the hand of my 18 year old son!
Ha ha ha! Yes it does, although mine is a quilt being basted, that is lying on the living room/hallway floor…
Love it! Mine is worse…
Hahaha … very funny … only knit or do a binding when watching TV
Hilarious! Mine is in no way that organized. There’s a huge quilt piled in one chair that has half the binding sewn on, a two-year (and counting) applique project in a bag next to the fireplace, and a pile of trash threads on the fireplace hearth. My butt is usually reclining on the sofa watching the events. I could use a spot to leave my glasses though, since I always forget to put them on and spend almost the entire viewing time asking family members “who is this? what was the winning time/score? what country are they from?”
So happy to hear I am not alone!
Have discovered that rotating projects helps keep my hands/wrists from getting sore: this 2012 Olympics is a personal best (worst?) for the number of different projects in play. And Stacey reminds me there’s an unstarted needlepoint canvas in a closet somewhere that I could add to the rotation…
Mine is messier
Yep that pretty much sums it up – take out the knitting though! Mine doesn’t reside on a table either, mine accumulates or balances rather pracariously on the arm of the sofa or the floor and often competes with the dog!
