This is so funny. When I saw the topic I thought you were going to challenge us to do household chores, or exercise, or cook something healthy for 15 minutes BEFORE we start our quilting day! LOL Gotta love retirement.

I have fallen way behind on my daily 15 min work sessions. Haven't done any at all for the last 3 days. (Does ordering fabric online count? If so I may be way ahead instead of being behind!) I'm going to try to catch up today & tomorrow.

I needed 30 sets of 4- 2 patches + (4) 2x2" squares - - I am thinking the extra squares will be added to the two patches and become part of a nine patch, but that is just a guess.

30 sets - - that is all I needed.
Well! I have close to a hundred sets with one 2-patch and 7-2x2" squares ... ONWARD! <wave>

it's good to see so many on the bandwagon.

I spent 20 minutes sewing this morning and at least 45 unsewing. sigh.

I will be looking after my three year old twin grandsons this afternoon so I am not likely to make any progress.

oh well there's always tomorrow.

I usually do some quilting related activity every day but it's hard this time of year with everything else going on.

Okay, hard to get 15 minutes a day in over the holidays. Now I've got my room in pretty good shape, cut out some stuff over the Christmas break, so I'm back to getting in the 15 minutes a day challenge. Woo Hoo.

WOW!
I was wondering what had happened to this thread ... I really depend on people posting to a thread to keep in touch with it <g> ... anyway!
Sometimes, the closest to fifteen a minutes a day quilting I get is: to complete a task to clear the path to the table that my machine sets on, after I get done cutting pieces for another quilt.
But, I don't mind a good challenge! LOL <wave>

Here's how I got my 15 minutes today. During the commercials while watching Glee I sewed. Hey it's 2 minutes every break. Luckily my sewing room and where the tv is is not far otherwise I could count it as a workout too! LOL
