When the studio is all cleaned up
 

Do you ever find yourself not wanting to do anything so it stays neat?

Yes , I do have the "oh but I don't want to mess it up " feeling... but it never last long... same for the neat studio.

Wow..that is a huge, wonderful studio. It think it would take me awhile to mess it up where I would no longer be considered "neat".

I did feel that way tho when I recently redid my studio.

nope......Because, No matter what i do it will never be as immaculate as yours.. lol..

When mine is cleaned up I always look over "there" where the what's-it used to be and think, where oh where did I put that???

Beautiful space! I would love to mess it up for you.:D

Never had that problem. Somehow I get inspired when I "neaten" my space. Right now I am destashing and it feels so good that I have become very productive. Hope to give away some yardage tomorrow that will never get used by me. Some of those "what was I thinking" fabrics.

It's a beautiful neat studio and yes I wouldn't want to mess it up but it would only be a few hrs and that would be all it takes. I do hate to mess it up it seems to take so long to clean it up. Happy cleaning again. Sue

I will help you to mess it up too, just let me know when you are going there.....

Sorry I can't answer that as mine has never been that neet, but it sure would be nice. You are giving me ideas...

Love your studio!!

That is one fantastic quilting studio. I might never leave!

Great studio! I love it when mine is all neat. It inspires me to quilt more when I can look around and see everything where it belongs. I just finished reclaiming mine from all the grandkids toys. I have been piecing all week and having fun in my "new" room.

Once I've cleaned and organized my sewing room... I'm ready to get creative!
Your studio looks VERY nice!

Thats me, after a good clean it takes me a few days to find where I put it all! LOL

I do want everything neat and clean but it never stays that long. Your studio is so beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

What a nice studio! Looks big and is very neat. I never get mine that nest, so I wouldn't know the feeling. LOL

Fantastic play area. I'd like to come and play in your stash. I promise to keep the room neat & clean. Ha Ha.

What a awesome sewing room it's beautiful!!!

If I lived near you I'd help you keep it picked up for the privilege of playing in it too!

Thank you for all the nice comments about my studio. I do love it. I have to confess.....when we looking for a house to move a bit further away from the city (Dallas), my husband did make the comment...."Are we looking for a house to fit that long arm?" And my reply was yes lol.

Nope! It inspires me to start another project....kinda like a fresh start! :)

mine is never that neat, always 100 WIP. no joking? beautiful room

that's it - we're all moving in with you! this is a beautiful space and I think I'm a little bit envious!! Lucky lady!!

Havent had to deal with that problem as my room has not been really cleaned and organized. I would probably have a "shock" time out to recover first! :)

I've only been in mine for around 10 weeks but find it easy to just tidy before I leave each day. At the moment I'm working on 3 quilts. Only thing I can't find yet is my pinking shears. I know they were on my table before I packed up.
I still have quite a lot of sorting to do but am enjoying sewing at the moment. I am still finding it amazing that I had so much packed into my bedroom.
Alexandra, are you not worried having all those bolts sitting under an open window? BTW I love your lovely big space.

If mine ever got neat, I would think about that. I always have the project I'm working on out, as well as the next couple to start! I just can't work in a place that feels too clean!

No, I just keep asking for quilting fairies that will continue to come and keep it clean!

Wow, such a sizeable room and all that natural lighting (windows). You are well organized. i would hate to mess that up also!!! My 8x8 room (does not include fabric) has tote drawers and shelving from floor to ceiling on three walls. Had to make up a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet to list all the stuff so I don't have to spend an entire evening wondering which drawer or shelf will I find it. LOL Dig in and dirty it up.

Yes, but I'm one of those weirdos that cleans up when I'm finished. When I had an office job, I never left until my desk was completely cleaned off and everything filed appropriately. Now when I sew, everything has to be put away or I can't start the next time I'm working there.

Here, here...neither will mine! LOL!

Yes! I feel that way. However, I think I better just get over it so I get some things done! Thanks for posting. Your studio is beautiful! :)

It is a challenge, isn't it?????? Great studio!!

Sunnie.... I'm sooo wishing I were home in Burgettstown Pa....an hour away but I'd drive the distance to take it off your hands...LOL. I'm a new quilter and envious of all the people with such great stashes...seems like it will be forever until I have enough that I would even want to part with scraps. Maybe in the spring when I come home you'll be doing some destashing again.

That is a huge sewing room... Organization is great. Time to start on that next quilt. :)

Sweet sassy molassy you have a nice big well lite space! It looks neat now! If you clean up after every project it stays fairly neat I find. I can't stand it if it's too messy!

Oh I cleaned my studio and it looked sooo good. Now it's back to "normal". I must clean it soon so that humans can use the space.

Your studio is so nice and organized.

I would have loved to seen the before pics, so we have something to compare these with.

I love to get mine cleaned and am always reinspired to make more quilts! I like keeping it pretty organized but that is just because I feel more creative in a cleaned area
