I just cleaned up my ongoing mess of sewing. What I found did it for me this time was shopping at 5 quilt stores in one day. The fabrics are folded up so nicely and stacked around. This was my inspiration, so in this case quilt shopping was a good thing for me, that time anyways.

Glad you decided to tackle the room! Amazing what you can find in there that has been forgotten, or misplaced! Please do share pics with us too! :)

Good for you! I'm looking forward to seeing your sewing room. I've been picking away at getting my sewing room picked up and not so messy. I start to work on it and then get sidetracked doing something else like sewing. Don't know what's wrong with me. LOL.

BEWARE! CLEANING YOUR SEWING ROOM CAN LEAD TO NOT FINDING ANYTHING YOU NEED!!!!
Now and then I have to clean out my sewing room because I can no longer walk in without tripping on something or knocking something over. Every time I clean it, it takes me forever to remember where I put things and some stuff I have yet to find from my cleaning last January. Maybe I'll skip it this year.... I can't sew when it's clean! I need the chaos.
