I don't actually quilt everyday. I would like to but I do lots of other things as well. I am a stay at home mom so that gives me a little extra time. I focus pretty good when I am doing them, probably because for the most part I am running behind and the deadline is close. I can usually do a top in two days, three tops when I am focused. I actually did all three of my kids origional quilts in 5 days and that was when I was working and worked 3 of those evenings. The only thing I had done before was on set of embroidery done. I will have to take pictures of them. I haven't yet. I am very fast. Probably due to the amount of sewing I do. My mom is fast as well. I don't know if that is something you inherit or not. Probably helps that I do lots of things with my hands like crocheting and woodworking that I have really good fine motor skills and hand eye coordination. I did this dress before Christmas for my daughter mess dinner for cadets. She thinks she needs a new one every year. I don't mind for the most part as it only cost me about $40 compared to the hundreds I know some of them spent. On the tree in the back ground there are ornaments done on my embroidery machine. So I tend to multi task as well. While that machine is going I usually sew stuff. These days usually quilting. My husband suffers from PTSD so this is also my strss reliever. I don't know what I would have done without my sewing room. I do have a very limited attentions span and often get sidetracked.
