Only you know what are "must do's" vs. "need to do's" but not necessarily
One tactic I do is ... set my chore goals for the day allowing some quilting time.d
That way I have my reward dangling to get those chorese done.
Examples ...
Chores in the morning, then quilt in the afternoon.
Or
Chores til 4pm, then start supper, quilt til it's ready, eat, then more quilting til bed time.
Or
No quilting til the task of the day is done ... amazing how fast I can get some of those done in the end!
And so on!
