I am amazed at the productivity of this group as well as some members of the guild I belong to. Except for the occasional garment I didn't do much sewing during the years that I worked. I'm OCD about housework and never had any energy left over. I started quilting when I retired, the last child left the nest and I could claim a bedroom as a dedicated sewing room. Now I devote mornings to my exercise, housework and errands and spend afternoons and weekends in the Woman Cave sewing. "To everything there is a season". I do admire those who juggle work, children and housework and still find time to sew.
