That's my theory! My room is messy and cluttered and I like it that way. It's a functional room with lots of shelves and boxes for fabrics (all arranged by color) and yardage hung in the closets. I have been working at using up what I have and most of my projects the last few years have been made with fabrics from my stash. I'm not a big "go in and clean it all up at one time" type of person. For one thing, I work full time and have several other passions besides sewing. Most of my sewing time is on weekends, so if I decide to do a big clean up it means all my spare time for a few weeks ends up going to the cleanup. Not for me. I sort and put away a little here and there and try to make sure I don't add to the mess. The rest is not so bad and I just ignore it. LOL
