Evening during the week. Once dinner is done and the kitchen is cleaned -it's off to Girl Cave.

On the weekends - on yucky weather days - as long as I can!

I'm lucky, my time is my own to do what I want. After I get my housework done which takes less than 1/2 hr in the morning. I'm usually in my sewing room by 9am and will work in there until about 11pm. I will stop to make dinner and do a load or 2 of laundry.

I can sew any time..but my husband has told me I cannot machine quilt after 8:30 in the evening. If I quilt later than that I thrash around in the bed all night! Guess I don't want to stop, so I quilt in my sleep!

daytime. I live in an apartment with very thin walls and I don't want to disturb the neighbors. and I tried evening sewing once but made too many mistakes. (don't enjoy Jack the Seam Ripper's company that much) so I stick to mornings mostly.
