    At least three hours a day---The Waltons have three episodes in a row and I sew then!

    It varie weekly and with how many projects I have going. Up til now I woul quilt about 4 or 5 hrs a day with all the parts of it, but my time just got cut to 1/3 of that since my cousin his wife and there 3 kids had to move in til they can finish some work on their house. (I somehow ended up free babysitter for their 18 mth old & 3 yr old...) lol that's what family is for though.

    I usually put aside an hour or two every day. With nice weather and a veggie garden, sometimes I don't do any sewing. All depends really

    Not near enough! I seem to go in spurts though, so maybe I will be busy with it again soon. We got new windows in our house, & DH is on a fixing it up again, the house that is, bug, so that's alot of the reason why. I also have been going to Physical Therapy for my back, & have to exercise twice a day. But back is improving greatly, so that is helping me want to quilt more, lol, which is good. I have lots of tops that need quilting too, so need to get busy with that too. Love it all, never get enough of it!..

    Not near enough to finish all my projects. I am on a finishing campaign-partly because of summer. I have 3 placemats to bind, a quilt to bind, a quilt to make a sleeve and label for and then all the other UFO's but they can wait.

    I agree, it has a lot to do with the weather. Have a yard to take care of and pretty soon my summer garden. However try to sew/quilt everyday, sometimes only an hour some times 10 ! always do hand work when sitting on the sofa watching TV....idol hands and devils workshop comes to mind. Will sew more if really into a quilt, with a complex pattern I just can not walk away from....or if I am on a deadline for a birthday or holiday....am learning however to start earlier on my projects, so the deadlines don't hurt quite so much....finished my mothers day quilt present a whole week ahead of time. and have fathers day done also....now if I only had all the christmas projects done as well and working on next valentines day....I can only dream....

    I am probably in there at least 40 hrs a week, some days longer than others, depending on what I need to do
