I am now paper piecing and making some hexagons by hand.
I hope to hear back from all of you quilters around the world.

I quilt at every opportunity and time of day doesn't matter. When I get a quilt sandwiched and ready and it's bed time, too bad. I have to quilt a minimum of one hour no matter how tired I'm before being able to settle down and sleeping. Now I can ONLY hand quilt that late at night. If I'm doing machine work, I don't dare do it that late as I'd never settle down to go to sleep. I know because I've seen the sun rise while in that frenzy. LOL. I machine piece in my computer/sewing/craft room but hand quilt in my love seat recliner in the living room with the good TV. I do have a nice TV in my sewing room too as I do enjoy having it on while I work. I have an Ott floor lamp by my sewing machine and another out in the living room behind my love seat. After doing without I told my husband I had to have them - older eyes evidently.
