My biggest problem is the guilt I feel when I am sewing...and knowing there are other things (cleaning house, preparing for school, etc) that I should be doing. Like you, I also sometimes I think I need a bigger span of time or I will really not be accomplishing anything on my quilt. I simply have to make myself take snippets of time..15 minutes here, 30 minutes there when I am working on a project. I also find it helps if I take the time in advance to get everything cut out and prepped for my project. Maybe if you could put on a movie or some music and carve out the time to get the project ready, then you could snatch snippets of time out of your day to sew.
