If you never used your cookie sheet, it would shine like new & nobody would taste your great cookies. If you never loved to sew, your room would look like a clean showcase; if you never loved, you've missed out on the most wonderful thing in the wjole world. Please, do not think of what others think - just what you are doing/loving, Live, Laugh, Love & Quilt! The 'mess' just may never be 'clean.'
