Nope, I can't stand clutter, so I can't settle down to sew until all else is tidy and no one is "wanting", of course there are only the 2 of us plus the dogs now, so it gets easier with age.

Not just when quilting, with everything I do! When I cook my DH comes behind me and cleans up because he can't stand the mess.

I take the cordless phone with me to my sewing room so I don't have to go back downstairs for it.

yes, indeed. It is amazing how much a grown man can need with no kids at home, and just the two of you. I could get a lot more done without the telephone ringing, and the "where is?????" I can't find it..........Even the dog wants attention when I am busiest.

Riversong, very nice. I also like mine neat when not working,and it is motivating to go into the room when it is so clean and organized. But, while I work it does get strewn and I have to clean up before I go out. Unless I have to stop my project to cook,etc.
