    It is true, no matter how much bigger your house is we will fill it up. My house is only 1500 sq ft and no basements or attics in Arizona. My grandson live with us so I have to stay organized or it gets to me. I have gone up the walls with storage instead or out.

A sane person would realize that four bed rooms was enuf for storage and a few sewing machines ,right. Well I've spent all day trying to find more room up there, Then it hit me , the dinning room down stairs. well I thought if I start slow , with maybe one machine my hb wouldn' t notice. He never notices anything else, so I slip carefully down with my fw . He' reading so I know he won't pay any attention, I get almost to the table when he says "rum out of room". darn . now what? No I won't let any of my dear friends out of the house.... Thanks for being here just needed tovent. Back I go up stairs.
    I feel your pain. I live in a 3000sq. ft. house...1500 sq. ft. consists of a storage room, craft room, bathroom, quilt area and sewing area!! I have no room, so I need to rethink!

    I have a 3 bedroom and two baths, and am getting ready for a visit from a sister. I'm absolutely stunned at the clutter in that guest bedroom, which I simply put a few things in that wouldn't fit in the other, smaller one where I sew. And cut things out. And have a TV in there, plus hundreds of old videos and CDs and books.
    Someone, from the look of it several some ones have been coming in and hurling fabric all over the front room when I'm gone, and I'm sticking with that statement. It's not MY fault it has such a marvelous amount..I mean, such a mess in there.

    I have a very small bedroom as my sewing room. I am running out of space but it is not due to the fabric. I was thinking about moving the desk with the computer out of the room so I'll make space for the sewing machines but I felt bad that I was going to use the guessroom for the computer. Not anymore!!! I wish I had more fabric. I only have 2 shelves 7 foot long by 1 feet high!

I promised myself that I wouldn't buy any fabric this year but I bought about 3 yds NYsDay.
    Does your husband build and fly remote control airplanes?
