    Does anyone have any clever suggestions on how to keep track on how long it takes to make my quilt. Someone once mentioned to use some kind of timer that I turn on each time I sit at the machine and then turn it off when done. Is there one that keeps time that way? Something like a trip mile counter in a car? Other thoughts. I know I will forget to write it down...

    I write it down. But, then I get distracted getting something to drink or potty break or taking the dogs out and then I start sewing again and about a half hour later I "remember" that I forgot to write down when I quit and started back again. So I have nothing to offer. I'm sorry.
