yeah....I do that too. I try to keep it at least functional. I have totes for stuff but in my haste..I don't always put things back.

I try to contain the mess, tidy as I go and do a quick whip round when I'm done for the day. It is helping to tame the chaos and I feel a lot more settled when I sit and sew...I can focus on what I'm doing rather than..."Uh oh...I should be putting that away" or whatever.

That isnt a messy room it is a sign of a serious crafter and quilter.

When I am in the middle of project my room becomes a mess!!

I use a basket for any ongoing projects...anything that I did that day goes into the basket...scraps and all...that way at the end of a project all I have is a basket to clean out...bigger craps get cut into appropriate sized squares and filed with other squares the same size in another basket. The key for me is baskets!

It's never a "mess"....it's creativity flowing throughout your room!!!!

The only place I have for my sewing cabinet is in the living room, at the back of the couch. So, there is no hiding any of my messes. I try to clean up between projects, but all I have to cut on is the kitchen table, and it, too, is visible.
When I am working on a project, the living room regrettably, looks like someone blew up a fabric store in there.
My fabrics have to be stowed in storage tubs out in the garage, so when I am searching for a specific piece, it is a major hassle.
I would LOVE to have a room with doors that close, so I could have a living room that looks like one, and a hidden nook for my messes. :roll:

Of Course!! But since I got my new sewing space about 2 years ago, I have tried really really hard to keep it neat. Especially since it is my family room and the computers are there also.

I think your sewing room looks perfectly NORMAL! It shows it's used!
