you're just bragging.

craftybear 05-29-2010 09:23 AM

I love your sewing room, well I have the whole house, ha ha

MaryStoaks 05-29-2010 09:37 AM

NO WAY!!! My sewing area is in the livingroom and sewing stuff is everywhere! I will not expose myself to public ridicule!

Baren*eh*ked_canadian 05-29-2010 09:39 AM

I just had a baby... you don't want to see the state of my sewing room, lol!

sewjoyce 05-29-2010 09:40 AM

I didn't just have a baby but you STILL don't want to see pics of my sewing room -- or rather I don't want you to see it!! :lol: :lol:

craftybear 05-29-2010 09:41 AM

Ok, fine, I'll bite, but don't say I didn't warn you!
Ever since the baby came, my sewing room has been a dumping area :( I really want to get organized but I just can't be bothered right now, lol!


Note that my sewing machine is not even on the table? The last time I had to use it I got frustrated and brought it upstairs to the kitchen table, lol!

Oh, I am so glad to see some sewing rooms are almost as bad as mine. I hardly have room to move around. It seems like every time I go in there to clean it up, I find something I think I should be working on and start sewing instead of doing what I'm supposed to be doing.

I'm just kidding. Right now it isn't too bad so the next time it looks like a tornado hit I will take a picture. :wink:

DebraK 05-29-2010 10:24 AM

This is about a quarter of my sewing space. I am working on adding the last two borders to this quilt. Hope to have it in the mail to my friend early next week.

Here is mine, it is not usually this clean, but I am just getting back from being gone for several weeks and have not got back into the full swing of things yet.

bearisgray 05-29-2010 11:12 AM

No way.

My excuse. I finally got my two gates today. I am in the middle of moving/expanding my space.

Oh, you are so ON girl, check this out. And I have 2 projects going, both near completion. I bet a lot of us do our best work amidst chaos. When I'm done with the 2 projects, I'll have just as much fun cleaning it all up in preparation for the next tornado to hit.

eightylady 05-29-2010 12:46 PM

Marsye, I loved it! We probably all feel that same way about whatever space we're working in. You're such fun!

eightylady 05-29-2010 12:52 PM

How do you ever get any sewing done with that view? You are so fortunate to live in such a place.

LOL!

It keeps little kids out. It also keeps DH away from my scissors. :evil:

The gate can expand. So, I keep buying expansion pieces and making the space bigger and bigger. Eventually, it will take less gating to surround the kids than my stuff. :lol:

You asked for it. The first three are supposed to be my sewing room. It's now my fabric warehouse. the wall of closets is usually full to overflowing, but I've been dragging things out. And the two 1940's metal dressers are full. they are going to be our vanities when we build the master suit. (after powder coating).

The other pictures are what used to be our living room. I've been on a tear, so it's not good. There is more fabric in the closet and under the bed in the guest room.

What you can't see to the left is a 14 foot sliding glass door to the backyard.

Just finished all but 15 out of 62 packages of the R/W/B block swaps. I am anticipating about 20 more packages by next week!

Pigzrule219 05-29-2010 03:07 PM

I love this and it pretty much describes my room/rooms too.
Thanks for sharing.

lillybeck 05-29-2010 03:25 PM

I would do that but my camera is broiken. I have one qui;lt thrown on the floor ready to quilt another half quilted thrown over the rack because I have to tear out some stitches again!! and another I started today on my table.

lalaland 05-29-2010 03:29 PM

hazeljane - that's what I'm missing - a fabric warehouse! My husband suggested I put my sewing room in the family room, lots of room and a beautiful view of our backyard, but it's that beautiful relaxing view that is so pleasant when family and friends are over to visit and/or have dinner so.......I'm in the back bedroom. My husband is incredibly neat (I obviously am not). He would go bonkers if I spread myself out like that. I wonder if I could get some hanging ceiling bins installed in the bedroom..........mmmmmmmmmm..............

Jingle 05-29-2010 03:35 PM

I like all the clean ones, I couldn't create anything in a messy room. I share my sewing room with 4 cats and if I don't keep everything put away, they would lay all over it and get hair all over my fabric. I can put everything away in a few minutes. Enough incentive to keep it clean and straight.
