I teach high school full time as well as the extra duties that go with that. Since I now get up at 5-5:15, there is no way I could sew in the morning. I've never been good at sewing before work anyway. At the end of the day I usually crash for a while before supper, maybe looking at a quilt magazine. Then I am often here on the board or working on tests or plans for school.

Some evenings I can sew a couple of blocks, but I quit cutting out when I am tired because I always make mistakes then. I might plan or lay something out, but the actual cutting has to wait until I am fresh. In short, I am pretty slow in getting something finished unless there is a deadline such as a baby gift. I am amazed at how much some people get done, but I guess I have gone through periods like that, I'm just not in that period right now!

I love any time spent at my machine, though. My DH is very helpful and suportive of all I do so I am very blessed. Weekends, breaks, and summers find me spending more time at our addictive hobby.
