    I wear a watch, too, but never at home.

    I have a clock radio in my sewing room. It is pretty obvious that I don't look at it very often. Today, I finally set it on Daylight Savings Time. Guess I hadn't checked the time on it recently.

    Yes I do have a clock I don't change the time from daylight to central standard. I usually don't realize how long I am sewing I get lost in the projects I a doing so I really need the clock

    I have one but forget it is there half the time.it is to the right of my machine and high on the wall. The only time I worry about time is when I have to get up early for work ... Then I try to keep track so I go to bed at a reasonable hour.

    I could sew for eight to ten hours into the night and loose all track of time. Being so tired the next day, did not help me out at work. As a Christmas exchange present one year, a co-worker gave me a cute clock for my sewing room. It changed my life. It reminded me when to go to bed, and as a result, I did better at work the next day. Now I am retired and the little clock is still ticking but I don't look at it too much any more.

    No, I do not have a clock in my sewing area, it would just take up space

    My husband shares the room with me, it's our sewing/computer room. there's a clock in it but I have to remind him to get up from his computer and walk around or he would sit for hours at a time. He is learning to make the patterns for my embroidery machine. But the computer is addicting for him anyway. I wonder around alot from one machine to the other either sewing (quilt tops or quilting) then there's the 2 embroidery machines I could keep running all the time if I chose to. Retirement is fun.

    I do have a clock in the sewing room. The only time I look at it is when I know I have to stop to go to work or when I have something else I need to do at any certain time.
