I'm in the messy club. When I quilt at my boyfriends house I have it all over-cutting in the dining room, sewing in the bedroom, ironing in the laundry or tv room. He is very good about it but I still clean up everything before I stop for the night. At my house I just don't do that. I usually leave to do something thinking I'll get back to it and don't or I sew until I can't see anymore and just go to bed!
