We used to have a White Shepard, Wuf, that taught me much about keeping my work put away. When I did counted thread designing, I would have multiple projects out, tucked away in their zip top bags and all in a basket by my work chair. Wuf got upset when I left one day - and chewed my pearl cotton balls! I learned that put up and put away were two very different things :wink:
Now my sewing area is right out in the midst of everything, and my main sewing table sits between 2 lateral file cabinet/bookself combos. It has taken some doing, but the Boyz now know they can come out and lay down in front of the laterals (they each took their turns wanting to be under foot!) I keep thread catchers all around, and usually have a spare bit of batting up by the sewing machine as a backup to catch threads. Magnetic pin catchers are the rule here, and I have a wand I sweep to pick up any I may have missed.
