You're busy. I also love fabric, color & creating things from the vision in my head, but I didn't really get into quilting until I retired and the kids moved into their own places. Until that happens, your head is always on 50 other things and the dedicated time just doesn't happen. Even now, I can't sit & sew for hours uninterrupted. My head always comes up with a chore that must be done. Don't sweat the small stuff. We tend to be way too hard on ourselves. If you are relaxed when you are creating and enjoying it, who cares if it take months or years to finish a project.
