I got divorced about 5 yrs ago. Moved froma 3 bedrm house to a 1 bed apt, and since the "d" I haven't quilting a stitch. Have 2 jobs and a puppy and no time for it, but I hate not having my own sewing room , which I had before "d", anyway I am stuck with a table and still no time. And when by chance I have time I have no energy. I come on this site to marvel at all that you ladies are doing. Keep it up i get encouraged by all I read. Katie

I need a lap quilt to do by hand instead of machine I think I can do that faster than rooting out machine, Does any one have a quick and fun hand quilt to piece. :-D

Maybe, retirement will bring more time to be able to quilt. (I love to look, too.)

It takes time. I rented a small house after my "d". About 700 square feet, and a teenage son and a dog. My bedroom became my sewing/office/bedroom/hangout. When I managed to get a top pieced after 12 hours of work, I would move the furniture out of the living room into the kitchen/laundry room. I could layer a king size quilt almost wall to wall. Just jump in and enjoy the challenge.
