I work full-time plus have an Avon Business and a Bookkeeping/Income Tax Business. I try to do some quilting on weekends and a little bit in the evenings. It really does help that I have the whole basement as my sewing room and can just leave everything out. It also helps that even though I'm not retired, my husband is, so that relieves me of some of the cooking, cleaning, and laundry. Also, I like to do hand stitching while watching TV, but can't see what I'm working on with my glasses on, and can't see the TV with my glasses off!. But I figure I'm stocking up fabrics, patterns, and notions for when I retire in a few years - hope my eyesight and arthritis don't get worse!
