Messy space
#2
This is something we all face. Mine always looks like a bomb went off in it while I am working on a project. I try to straighten it out before I start the next one. I recently removed all the bins of scraps and batting to another space. This has made the room less cluttered and easier to work in.

I know exactly what you mean. I, too, am a very neat person normally. But go into my sewing room when I am on a mission (quilting) and it is a disaster. I am going to clean the room soon and change things around so I can have what I need right there in front of me and hopefully it will not be such a mess. My DH said he will help change furniture around so that my ironing board and cutting table are in good spots. We are changing the lights also so I don't need the special lamp to see anything I sew. I want to get rid of some stuff too, that's the hard part !

Just means you a very busy person. I gave up on trying to be really tidy in the studio. As long as I sweep once a day (thanks to Eleanor Burns I throw every thing on the floor! and I can't seem to stop that bad habit) and I have room to work they can all over look my mess.

I have completely given into the "Oscar" ( the messy one from the Odd couple)with in me. I do try to tidy up on completion of a project , or on really big projects .. clean up at the completion of a certain stage of the project. But oh how I really wish the Felix ( the neat one from the Odd Couple) would come out more often.

I am an organized person-period. HOWEVER, when it comes to the sewing room, it is a different story. Everything is in a label container, drawer or area yet when I am working on a project- well... Yesterday DH came into sewing room and said "You have a lot going on in here!". So I will second your UGH!!
