    Guess I'm in good company, lol. I try to keep my sewing room clean, but doesn't often happen. I'm in the process of reorganizing right now; been doing it for at least 6 months. I have to stop to sew, though. If I just didn't sign up for swaps, etc, ......

    You have just described my entire life!! lol I did get a few areas straightened up while my machine was being serviced, which is a milestone for me :D I really just need another machine, so I won't have to do the "anxiety" cleaning.

    So is mine, but it's just me and the cat. As long as she can find her food bowl, she doesn't complain.
