So, when I make myself put things away, shelve partially finished projects neatly, rearrange fabric, dust and vacuum, and clean my machine, I find that the desire to begin again is quite pleasant and strong.

OMGsh!! This is so me!
Luckily I enjoy other creative activities like crochet, calligraphy, drawing, painting and reading and can put off cleaning for a very long time. LOL
I just close the sewing room door and find something else to do. I just started my veggie garden!
Eventually the quilting bug finds me and I just HAVE to get back in there and find my cutting mat and tools under the piles of stuff and get started again. Just like Jan in VA said, a clean and organized sewing area is such a delight.
