just fabric I love your space, you have so much stuff it would be heaven to be in the middle of that.

I would feel stifled in a very tidy area, it would almost feel like I could not move anything.
I work better in clutter and chaos :)

If Im in the middle of a project its messy. But I always clean up after a project before starting another. I cant stand clutter, or not being able to find anything.

I love that way of thinking about your sewing room...just love that!

Not a chance. My sewing room is a small corner in my bedroom, with totes full of fabric under a 5 foot folding table, next to a craft table where I put my sewing machine. There is just enough room between the table, the end of my bed, and a metal shelf with sewing parafenalia in small clear totes, but they are labeled. Then there are totes on my dresser and then another metal shelf next to my bed with the rest of my "stuff". I'm currently in the middle of getting ready for a craft fair, so I would need a sign "Enter at your own risk - management is not responsible for any injuries or lost items." Need I say more?

Absolutely NOT! My sewing room is also my ironing room, my gift wrapping room, my guest room, my photo cropping room.......

Just Fabric-Okay, you challenged me, I'll get some pictures in a while, then you can decide which one is the messiest-yours or mine. LOL

Brilliant! I'm moving my laptop right now. Why didn't I think of that. One more sewing surface! Woohooo! I'll send pictures tomorrow maybe. Working today....

I like that idea too, but my room is too small; don't have the walk around space.

I would show mine, but I just got done cleaning it up about a month ago. I'm trying to keep it that way.
