Hand work is always a good idea. Grandmothers flower garden is a favorite of many. Try to give yourself time, even if its only 20 minutes twice a week to work on a project you want to finish. I know it probably feels overwhelming at times with family responsibilities, but if you make time for you, even a small amount here or there, not only will you feel good about your "ME" time,but you will feel less stressed. If you just cant manage to set aside time for yourself, then I highly recommend hand piecing since its mobile. Enjoy those kids, they sure grow fast!!!
