I am an early morning person so that's a great time for me to sew. It's quiet, you don't wake anyone else up doing it, and you don't need to be doing "just a few things" for someone else that end up taking half your day. My daughter recently had a baby and told me the other day that she now "gets it" about why I always got up so early in the morning as my own children were growing up! Now she's doing the same thing!!
