well I thinks we are all the luckiest people because we have the space. Just imagine what the others with no room to call their own have to go through everyday, clean up and more clean up. how sad for them. I will keep my mess it is mine and if I don't want to clean it up I just Shut The Door!!!! have fun all

Some of you have more fabric and notions than stores in my area have. Sorry mine is a mess and no one sees it but my goal is to use what I have before I step into a store. Hope I can do that. Someone said the best thing I have heard do not buy another storage item use what you have and then you do not need more storage units.

CT new fabric lines and knew I needed room for those. It's my way of recycling and contributing to worthy causes. Two in one. I check the classifieds here to see if anyone is looking for fabric I may have and have no plans for and I send it to them.

I am so overwhelmed by pictures of sewing rooms. I can't imagine how woman can let rooms get like most of them are. I would pull my hair out. I work on ONE project at a time, buying what I need when I need it. I look at these rooms and all I can think is what a waste!!!! Why not do a project, finish It, and then move on to the next one? Life would be so much relaxed and enjoyed. Is it "whoever dies with the most fabric wins?" Use judgement and enjoy what you have at the moment. FINISH a project and then move on. I will probably get a lot of flak over this reply, but just think how much more you would enjoy quilting, if it was't moving you out of your home. I have not ever heard of any other hobby that overtakes your home, like quilting does for some of these quilters

I'm so very glad to see everyone elses' rooms! I'm right at home in all of them and you've given me courage to show you mine.
We just had the carpets steam-cleaned, so everything is still up on the tables and ironing board. You can tell that I'm trying to cram too many hobbies into one 18' square room, but it's a lot more space than I've ever had before, so I'm very grateful! :)
I'll be even more grateful after I get my machines and table cleared off so I can sew again - third day without sewing something - I'm having withdrawal symptoms. ;)
