You know what, I am SOOOOOOO glad to hear there are so many other quilters just like me. I've been beating myself up for the mess. They say you can be more creative if you have a clean place to work, heck I would have to move out my "stuff" and then move back in and that really sounds like to much work and can you imagine the distractions that would be involved!!!!!! Just forget it!!!!! I'll just do it my way, LOL

After I get my mother downsized this summer (a good part of my summer is out of state with her), I will return to do the big sewing room clean-up, before school starts again...too soon. Has anyone noticed how short summers are now? I could laugh as time seems shorter in general, but our school only gives us 7 weeks off...not the great 3 months we had as kids. :( |
Wow you sound like me that is what I'm doing in my sewing hole! LOL

I have been having a really bad day and you made me smile. First one all day and it is 10 PM.

OK - back to work. Found a big bunch of charm squares. (I have NO MEMORY of buying them.) Stopped cleaning and started sewing Disappearing 9 Patches. Wow, what fun! So, today after church, I will sew some more. Then I should put them together in a small baby quilt to take to guild tomorrow night for Show & Tell. At this rate I probably will take a year to finish the organization! My daughter, who is not a quilter, or in the least crafty, said "Aren't you finished yet"? |
I started doing the same after overhearing my son tell his wife that he was concerned that mom was becoming a hoarder!! So decided I needed to clean it up and clean it out. Good for you,.. you doing great and sound like your making good progress, just stay with it! I will post pics too, later.

Its not factory work, it suppose to be fun and relaxing. A hobby.

I cleaned a bookshelf this afternoon and it is all organized. Didn't feel like sewing but felt like doing something. I spent the weekend in the hospital with a partially blocked small intestine - so it is slow going for me. Now I need to really straighten the rest of the sewing room. May do a little tomorrow after Bible study.
