My sister in law has the most beautiful (and organized) sewing room.
My sewing room is always in a constant state of chaos! What about you? Do you work in chaos or order?

I think of my space as organized chaos!!
In the midst of a project(s) it can get pretty chaotic. But after, I must put it back to order. Or at least as ordered as it ever gets. But in general, I'd describe it as "too much stuff". An open spot on a shelf or in a drawer doesn't stand a chance.
A 50 year quilter here. I quilt scrappy 90% of the time as I make my own 'pre-cuts' from scraps from free tables at quilt meetings, bag & buy scraps at quilt shows plus my own sewing. My quilt room has every single wall crammed with Ikea shelving (including under the window), all folded & highly organized, with fabrics from Australia, Africa, Katmandu & Nepal, Asian, the Netherlands, England, etc. When cutting scraps I also have 32 plastic shoeboxes labeled for particular quilts I make for a purpose (to donate, to gift to someone after surgery or trauma in their life, etc),so those get filled or topped off, too. Bit coins, bricks, sq in a sq, economy, 4x4's in 2 and 2.5 inch pieces, rectangular coins, zipper, star hollow, I Spy for kids, Churn Dash, strips, crumbs, etc. I give away 95% of what I make, with regular clean up sessions. When quilting I'm quite happy to work 'as is' till a project is done, and then tidy up. The hundreds of books are going to the local library when I go 'toes up' and the remaining fabrics are getting donated to my quilt guild. Wish my daughter and/or granddaughter showed an interest in sewing...but not so far. I spent over a year happily helping other senior women learn to sew or work on projects they had interest in (hexies, tote bags, mug rugs, runners, etc), but stopped when I had an injury hauling some wood and had to have surgery. I spend probably 40-50 hours per week very happily working on projects. My 12 pound dog absolutely HATES what I do as she feels my 'free' time should be spent only with HER! Deb E / California
Some people have a knack for keeping things tidy.
I think that blue quilt is lovely, too.
