Its been many years since I had small ones around when I was sewing. I used to sew while they were in school, yes I was a stay at home mother. Then I would sew in the evenings when they were all tucked in usually from about 9 till 11pm. Now a days I just have to make sure my hubby doesnt feel neglected as I am retired. There was a 25 year period there when I didnt sew at all, too busy returning to college, and running a business. Making up for lost time now tho.
