Katsewnsew:

I have mother's old apron...it will be going on the wall shortly. What a great idea!

Stairs are becoming a problem for me, tho. Once I get down there, I am there for several hours!!! (that's not so bad, is it??) Imagine that!

My sewing room is the formal dining room. It has no DOORS. I try to keep it neat, but that is not easy with my DS sleeping in there. He moved back home last summer. He just left for 6 weeks @ camp !!!!! :lol: I just finished a massive spring cleaning spree because we were having company 2 weekends in a row, so it's still fairly neat

Well, there goes 2 hours of my day! Thought I'd "check in" to the Board to see what's new and LO, AND BEHOLD! all those hillarious pictures of everyones' sewing rooms! Just couldn't help but get lost in it all! YOU GUYS ARE A HOOT!!!! Until October, I sew in my dining room. My sewing machine and computer are on the same desk. No mess to show!

Would love to see that baby

Howard, go to Personal Diaries and Announcements and click on Baren*eh*ked_canadian , start at the back pages, and look at the date and click back a week or two.
Look at mommy, then daddy and then baby and guess which one he is the spitting image of :thumbup: What a cutie! and I'm a quilting auntie ;-)

My room is wall to wall shelves with material projects in plastic boxes. It would look organized to another quilter, but not to everyone. Most things are labeled, so are easy to find. Not bragging! I just have that personality that wants all my ducks in a row. Happy to see some cluttered rooms because it makes me feel "normal".

We have an old Ikea desk that we don't want in the bedroom anymore, so I am going to repurpose it as a cutting table. I can't wait to not have to drag my mat, material, ruler, blade, etc out to the kitchen.

Once I get the room rearranged, I am going to have to put a new picture up to redeem myself. :)

oh, girl, this is what I'm screaming. I love everybody's picture's
"as is", except mine!
I really am a cleaner/organizer and once upon a time I would never have posted pictures like that, but I have been so busy.
Heck, this mouse can really make a mess when in the midst of something creative, but I always clean up when i am done with that project.
My mother is a hoarder and just moved and since she can't see to sew/craft anymore, guess who couldn't resist all the freebies?
so it got piled up...you should see this computer room!
I have a twin bed in here and this room is 8' x 11 1/2' and there's 20 years of clothes...REMEMBER SHE'S A HOARDER EXTRAORDINAIRE,...that I'm going to sell in a big yard sale in the fall.
DH comes in here and says, "what are you going to do with all that stuff?
I told him and he just rolled his eyes and started walking away while I was talking!
I have a friend that will help and I'm going to sell these clothes cheap, cheap, cheep...lol ;)
Yes, I did make sure there wasn't anything I wanted to recycle into quilts :thumbup:
anywho, I am usually not messy like this, and the rest of my house is clean. HONEST!
No, I'm not taking pictures of the Mousepad, you'll just have to take my word for it ;-)

I hear you! My room is organized to me and those who sew in it. I have labeled drawers and places for everything. Even neat piles of half finished projects or fabrics I've cut from but haven't put away yet. But, looking at the pics, it looks sloppy. Grrr.
