I work better when things are neat and organized. Just today I finished a stack of Christmas presents and I'm pleased as punch I can walk through the doorway to my bedroom again. (had to use the other door for months now - hooray!)

I can tell when it's time to clean up when I can't focus on any one particular project. Sometimes I'll just sort my scrap bin (by color) to "feel" better and move on. Right now I have fabric for two purses on the floor that have the interfacing ironed to them - they need cut out and then sewn, and I'm working on a full sized quilt (with pieces for each block cut out and in seperate baggies). When I get those two done, I'm going to clean out my UFO stash (I lost count there).

I feel so much better when things are organized. When I get my UFO stack(s) done, I'm going to make something out of my scrap bin and get it all cleaned out. After that, I'm going to start on my "projects" (quilts/bags that the materials are purchased, but I haven't started) -- hopefully by the time it's time to start christmas presents, I'll have a super clean and organized studio!!!

My SIL likes for me to keep my sewing room organized. I am not good at neatness when I sewing.
When my husband and myself go away for few days, SIL has everything nice and neat when I return. He is a KEEPER.

Only the genius, knows its way around chaos!

Good luck! I do the same exact thing. I get into a cleaning frenzy, just like I did between Christmas and New Years. Everytime I do that I get frustrated because I can never find what I'm looking for because it was put away.

The rest of my house is immaculate, but my sewingroom looks like a few tornadoes went through.

It's a mess again as we speak. If you find the secret to organizing it and keeping it that way please write a book. I'll be the first to buy it!

I am a true genius! I have been working for three days on my quilt room to clean it up. Gosh I didn't know how many pretty fabrics I had. I get side tracked but I have to get it cleaned. My daughter was afraid I was going to trip over everything so she sorta cleaned it without letting me know before Christmas. I couldn't find a thing.

whenever I finish up a project I put things away that way it doesn't look to cluttered in my apartment. BUT when I am working look out single file only!

I can't see the carpet in mine all my attempt at straightening it up has so far just made it worse. All I can do is pray for light at the end of the tunnel
