I work from home (on my computer) so under the best conditions I get two whole days/week to sew.

well.... if I hadnt found this board I would be at my machine more.

I usually do 3-4 hourd daily. I love the board, but my sewing room is first in my heart. Besides if I sat here all day my head would explode!

Same here! Oh, I spend just about ALL the time THINKING of ideas, patterns, techniques, everything leading UP to it, but just not DOING it! If I could actually FINISH all the quilts that I have started in my MIND, I could warm the WORLD!

THE FIRST THING I DO AFTER COFFEE IS CHECK THE BOARD. I ENJOY THIS SO MUCH,SEEING ALL THE DIFFERENT WORK. I USUALLY SPEND 3-4 HOURS A DAY SEWING. ONCE A WEEK SOME FRIENDS AND I MEET TO SEW AND HAVE LUNCH WHICH IS FUN. SOME DAYS WE DON'T GET A LOT DONE JUST VISIT.

at least 1 hour on a good day 6-8 hours...now that my work hours have changed again, i am trying to get in 2-3 hours a day during the week, more on the weekends :)

My DH says I spend at least 40 hrs. a week. I don't think so. Sometimes I have hand sewing going on so I'll do that while watching TV at night, which adds to the hours.

It varies. Some days (like pretty much all last week) I didn't sew much because I was researching some stuff online. Other days, I sew for 6-7 hours, on and off. It just depends on what else is going on, and how big a hurry I'm in to finish a project.

I always spend my early time in the morning with all my quilty friends here and then I start my day!
I am retired so I sew anytime and never pay attention to how long I am in my sewing room.
I will be on vacation in a few days and taking my laptop as not to miss anything going on here...
