I mandate in my family that one hour a day is mine and you can get alot done in one hour. Hubby can watch kids or they can go to bed and you get your hour. I know how busy women are today. I work 40 hrs and drive 10 and take care of my home, family and pets. I am not superwoman. (She has a better figure) It's tuff. You have to be organized to a point but not to much.
During the week, one night I will pick some fabric and pattern. Another night I will cut some but not all fabric. I save the weekends for most of my sewing. I do not concern myself with dust bunnies or tall grass!
peace
