    No -- don't want to know any more than I want to know how much I read. I do it for pleasure. I don't count the number of pieces to make the quilt either -- unless I get sick of the quilt before it is done and finishing it is a drag.

    No I do not either.

    What I would like to see on sewing machines is a gadget that would tell you just how far you have stitched - bit like a mileage counter in a car.

    No, I don't. I work on multiple projects in various stages and it would be hard to keep track. Besides, it's my way of getting away and keeping track of the hours defeats the purpose.

    Oh dear me no! It doesnt matter as it is therapy for me, which results in gifts for others.

    Just keeping track of the number of years a quilt had been in "production" (which includes sitting in a bag in the closet) is more than I can handle.

    I keep up with it if it's a customer quilt....otherwise I just approximate the time.

    I have no idea but, I know I spend my free time and some that isn't free making quilts. I do keep a list ot all the quilts - biscuit quilts and comforters I have made, with a short description.

    I have never kept track of hours, but I'm pretty good at estimating the number of months that it takes me. During the school year when I have to do that work thing and grade papers, write IEPs and stuff, it takes me longer. I hate it that work gets in the way of quilting....
