[quote=Diannia]Thanks everyone! I'm a bit worried about the carpet too but the room was formerly known as the "formal living room" so if we decide to sell it'll need carpet in it. It now has 12" tiles around the outside of a carpet that's installed so at least the perimeter is tiled.
If you have a good hand vac, it will pick up the threads so they don't clog up your power head on your regular machine. I store mine under my frame. I also tend to put my thread trimmings on the extra batting at the edge of my quilt. It picks up those too before I roll my quilt. You can purchase a set of "tool attachments" that are small enough to clean the fuzz out of your machine as well. Carpet is not that much of a problem. Just be careful of pins!
