I love to sew. But I am a moody sewer. Sometimes I will sew and sew, then others I will go for days without even looking towards the sewing machine. I do better by myself, since I am just learning, and I need to concentrate on what I am doing.
I am kinda funny where the cleaning comes in though. I feel guilty if I am sewing the the house is a wreck. So, to feel better about it, I clean really good right before I know I am going to start a new project. So it was at least clean when I started. So that was the old method. I switched, and now I clean at least one room in the morning, and then I sew the rest of the day. Seems to be working for me, so far anyway. Hubby is good about cleaning up the kitchen in the evening after we eat. We all know how hard it is to load the dishwasher!!! But I do not complain as that is one thing less I have to do.
