And I thought that only I had a crowded room. My kids are trying to "guilt me " into getting rid of some of my stuff and can't understand why I need all this fabric . lol

Mine is a very organized mess! I am going to print off a pic or two and post in my sewing room. Then when someone says you got more material than you will ever use in a lifetime, I can say, "no, I am behind the others, I got to get busy and buy more materialhttp://www.smileycons.com/img/emotions/238.gif

I wish i had the stash you all had!!!. i put mine on boards. all right, soon, i'll show you. but i am in the basement, and it is not 'completely' finished. and not neat. i have boxes of nurses uniform supple scraps. and the carpet is all scraps. different here, and there. i'm cheap. guess, it wouldn't cost that much to have the same.

Lordy--Lordy!!!! Heaven help us all. I would never get anything doen if I had that much fabric. Glad you can sew there and know where every thing is. I guess I am not normal.

I loved seeing the pics of your stashes. Mine is not quite that stacked but I have decided I really need to try and use some of it up before I buy too much more. I am not getting any younger and it is sort of a challenge...I keep telling myself! :-) But then when I start somehing, I never have just what I need to finish it. I am sure you all know what I mean.

Exactly my problem...Never have just the right pattern or color to finish a project.
But one of these days I will!

My husband makes NO Comment at all, My father told him to NEVER say anything about it! roflmao

OMG........I would find it very hard to work in an area like that. I do have my sewing room somewhat organized, but every bit of my time spent organizing.... is lost sewing and quilting time. My room is in an area of my home that has to be walked through to get somewhere else, so at least need a pathway! To each his own, it's our space, enjoy it in whatever way you can!
