I didn't get through all the comments, but I feel so much better about my little sewing room now! I too, live with organized chaos, on a much smaller scale. I always explain that when I am feeling creative, and on a roll, I'm like the swedish chef from the Muppet Show. Also, the best tool I have in my sewing room is a metal child's rake. I use it to clean up the mess on the floor when I am done (scraps too small to save, thread, fusible backing, etc.) - it works like a charm every time.
