I can't believe you have only been sewing less than a year! And 15 tops?!!! Wow! You must be in perpetual motion!! Of course, I remember when my kids were little, I managed to get a lot more done. Had to work fast and when I could. Now it is just the two of us and it takes me forever to do what I use to do in a couple of hours. Of course, I'm a lot older now and have back and leg problems, maybe that is why. Nope! Just got as lot slower in my old age.LOL Where in KY are you?
