Does anyone here have trouble creating in a messy sewing room? Mine is a disaster area right now and I'm planning to clean it this weekend but have to make a baby quilt now. I'm finding very little joy in making this quilt due to my surroundings.

My sewing room is a disaster, so I use my dining room table!

Why not move your sewing machine into another room for this project?

i'm the opposite.
i can't create in a room thats too nice. i see some rooms on here that look like a decorator put it together. i would be too afraid of making a mess and ruining the nice furniture/etc. i paint, screen print, dye, etc fabric all the time i can't be worried about ruining my pretty things in the process. i need to work without inhibitions. |

I cannot sew in a messy room. I clean up after each project. It may get a little messy during the sewing part---but it is just stuff for that project.
The room I have is quite small but nicely organized. |
Every time I start a project it's like the beginning of a monsoon. I totally trash my sewing room. Then when the project is done, I clean it all up and start on the next project. I do my best work amid the chaos but I know that's not true for a lot of people - I think JulieR had a great suggestion/solution - temporarily move into another room if you can.

I like to leave my sewing space all straightened up and ready for the next time... Only takes a few minutes extra..
|
It makes me nervous when things get too messy. I like things semi-tidy. I like everything put away when I leave the room each day.

I don't like mine messy. I try to put things where they go when I'm done with them and deal with scraps as I go. My space is pretty small and it doesn't take much mess to trash it.
