I work from home, so during naptime i sometimes cut or sew. I also quilt after the kids go to bed at night-sometimes it's not for very long though. You'd be amazed at 20 minutes at your machine here and there your projects start coming together. Most of my quilting marathons come on the weekends. I have a maid that comes in on the weekend so i only have to worry about doing the laundry!! Also, my sewing machine is always set up so whenever i have a few minutes to sew a seam or whatever i do it!! Every minute adds up to a beautiful quilt!!
