Haha I am just like you. Im a messy sewer sorta....I have everything I will need, may need, or think I will need on the table with me...As I cut, I have a little plastic tote on the floor for my scraps. When that gets over filled...I still add to it. But now that I am doing that 1.5 inch swap, I may not have many scraps to put in that tote.

Compared to our sewing room, this is extremely neat!

I didn't know there was a 'neat' quilter, unless you mean a person who's 'really neat'. My room set aside for quilting is pretty messy. And I don't mean pretty as a form of flattery. It stays that way until I stop for one whole day and do nothing but straighten it. Very boring work, but I have been known to find some fabric I had forgotten about and start working on the project set aside for some reason.

cfly, I couldn't agree with you more concerning your slogan! Remember the old saying..... "Be careful of stones that you throw....."?

I discovered if I wet my straw broom, I can sweep up most of my strings that way. Beats fighting with the vac! Course my aide doesn't agree~~~~)

Sometimes I just have to stop and put away a few things so I can clear my mind. I am not a neatnick but I have to have some type of order. Some days I walk in my sewing room and wonder why I didn't hear the bomb. I absolutely have to have my stash orderly...that's a must. To each their own: we just want to sew.
