I quilt an hour a day right now. I do a lot more on the weekends, I have quilted 10-12 hours without much of a break. My hands hurt some but my shoulders are what really hurt the next day!! I wish I could dedicate more time... I'm going to get some crib sized quilts and work on them during my lunch break and when I'm waiting on my husband to get off work (we ride together). That will give me another hour and half. I could possibly sneak in 20 hours a week without starving or living in filth!!
