I do take care of my machines but the clutter seems to always be there. I wish I was more organized but as my husband used to tell me "you are a pile it. you take one pile and pile it over there" lol.

LOL! I agree with Moonrise- We're supposed to clean? Mine is a disaster area. Every time I start to clean it, which is rare, I end up pulling out things for another project. I am trying to finish up the projects that are on the floor so I can clean it up some before I trip over something and hurt myself. I did get rid of some fabric that I purchased when I first started quilting that I don't like. I kept looking at it and thinking i had to use it and I didn't enjoy sewing with it at all. It was a bunch of 30's repos. My guild had an auction of things we didn't want and people went nuts over it. We use this money to support some of our charity projects. This made some room in my closet to put some things away.

Hey Prissnboot,
I am with you. I have a tendency to do the same thing. I have to straighten up the area, clean the sewing machine of choice for this project, run the sweeper and put everything back where it belongs. Things have a way of running away while I am in the throws of piecing, cutting, ironing, and quilting. Everything goes back where it should be and that makes me feel really good. Then, I can take a deep breath and get going on the next project.
