I am glad to hear that somebody has to straighten before they can relax to sew. I can 'make' a mess, but not start with one. It's the mess that distracts me. Clean makes me feel so good, I get my wheels on and can go then. I always said I feel the way my house looks. I am not an-eat-off-the-floor kind of person, but there's got to be some method to my madness! :wink:
P.S. Since we are talking about distractions, I am famous for going along on a quilting project and just getting an itch to cut out an outfit for grandbaby, or a tote bag, or gown for grandbaby, or a pillow for her bunny, or a doll quilt, or help her make a gift for her mommy.....it's not that i am not sewing, i am just not getting the quilting done as fast as I would like, for all the other things calling to me. She's such a doll, nana wants to make her everything. We do it together and have so much fun! :D
