    Well, I don't have a sewing room... my sewing stuff is in my (very small and crowded) bedroom. But yes, I am constantly moving it around. I keep trying to find the ideal arrangement... and I don't think it exists!

    You could send us all, some of your material so you could make more room for yourself.

    I have the corner of the boys room. They are with us on the weekends, so during the week I have room to spread out... otherwise it all stays in that corner... not much I can rearrange.

    Wow, that is a lot of fabric... need help destashing some of it :D

    My room is about 12' x 11' and I have my sewing machine, computer and 4 needle embroider machine on two tables along with my industrial machine and a folding table that I let out to cut fabric on. I do have cabinets above the tables, which helps to store stuff, but the room is always very cluttered. Add to that the ironing board, a 127 pound lab and two very busy cats and there is hardly any room for me. It's my room, though, and I love it.

    My suggestion would be to move - buy a new house - with a bigger footprint. That way, your attic space would be much larger. Used to live in Milwaukee on 55th Street. Had a wonderful bungalow with 5 bedrooms, 3 upstairs. When boys moved out, I had the whole floor except for the master to play in. Even had a walk-in closet in the hallway! Really miss the city - so much to do! Good luck on getting your space to work for you.

    I have so much stuff that my whole flat is consumed with it. Others don't understand so I've decided to become a hermit...

    P.S. I consider work mess to be a clean mess!

    I don't usually move furniture, no room. Seams like when I do "try" to clean up, I lose stuff and can't find it.
