HOW OFTEN DO YOU CLEAN YOUR SEWING ROOM???????
My DH is helping me clean right now and he offered to vacuum my sewing room. I haven't vacuumed in about 2 months so the dust balls and thread have "piled up". I had to argue with him NOT to do it.....only because I didn't want him to see how much my stash had grown!!!!! Does your DH help you clean your room????????

Mine doesn't help me clean, but he is in there quite often and helps me to move things around if needed and helps a lot to build things needed for the room. Totally supports what I do and helped to put in my shelves for all my stash-so there was no hiding it from him!

My roommate (ex-hubby) has seen it all and thinks I'm nuts about fabric...he's watched all the quilts being made and passed on to charities and knows better than to question my creative madness.

I'm not purposely trying to hide my stash from my husband but that might change as I'm actively working on getting all of it in one room - my eventual true sewing room. Then he will truly see the magnitude of my stash. :oops: :oops:

I would love to have someone help.

ABSOLUTELY NOT! But, he does help me hang things when I need him to, my scissors would disappear!

My hubby helps me soooo much it's almost irritating!! Since he's retired I don't do house work anymore because I don't do it his way. Retired boss.... So he does it now, frees me up to sew like the mad woman I am!!!!!!!! He's a good hubby and I don't mind him taking my job!!!

edit to add,
Nope, I don't loan him out, mine mine mine!!!!

I keep mine pretty clean. But definitely after completing a project I try to get it cleaned up again.

Mine is into starching. Before he retired, he used to dip starch all his shirts and iron them while watching football, car races etc. Any fabric yardage I want starched, he's my man.
