Well it looks like most of us have the same problem. I am forced to sew at the kitchen table now because I can no longer get into the sewing room. I have a path that gets me to most of my cabinets but one of my machines is still in there and my 5 drawers of notions are still there too. I slide in as best I can and reach for fabric hoping to get something that works. What a problem we have. I don't know any way to solve it other then to continue not to buy any more fabric or notions. I have 3 irons. Each time one came out that I liked I bought it. I was thinking of running some ads on ebay. What do you do with an excess of notions?? I can't believe I am the only one.
