I have a clock that is a purple flower, and hangs on the wall just above my machine area. I need the clock, as I am only in the room for short spurts of time mostly. 20 min. before work, 30 min. in evening, etc.

No clocks in my house at all. Use either the laptop or cell phone. And no I'm not young - I did grow up with clocks

I had a clock in my old sewing room. I now have a new sewing room and I didn't move it yet. I never looked at it nor changed the time on it. I put a new battery in it at some point. I wear a watch all the time very seldom look at it either. I have HGTV on all the time, mainly for the sound and very seldom look at it. I check the time when I go outside to smoke and that tells me when to stop in the evenings so I can get up early and go to work. My Husband likes a strict schedule, not me.

I have a clock in the dining is where I sew. But it doesn't mean anything. I get so in grossed with what I am doing and time flys by quickly I might add. So the clock doesn't help me.

No clock in my sewing room. I'm often shocked when I emerge and check the kitchen clock. Time goes by at a very different rate when I'm in there.

I do not have a clock in my sewing room. I stop when I'm tired, hungry or just need a break. The fur people will come get me if they want to go outside. I have finally reached the point in my life where I'm not governed by a clock any more. Yea!!!!

No, no clocks, like many, my hands and back tell me when to get up. If I'm quilting (HQ) I can only go about 1.5 hours and I have to get up ( fingers go numb, legs go numb). Have to watch the time to pick up Grandkids from preschool, so I do get up often to go outside and smoke.
