How do you find time to stitch?
| Wed, 02-17-2010 - 12:33pm |
Is time an issue for you? Do you have trouble starting anything because all you can find is a few minutes here and there between life's necessary routines? Or do you just say "Phooey" to household chores and stitch to their neglect (like me LOL)?
Here is how the editorial director of Quilting Daily does it:

Fascinating! Someday I would love to learn to make my own printed fabric. For now though, I will use what I have.
Finding time is a big challenge for me. Once in a while, I have a weekend to myself where I can sew on my machine. But I mostly stitch by hand because I can work minutes at a time that way.
I stitch in the car while waiting and picking up my children at school ( I will deliberately get there early so I have more time to stitch) Appointments, naptime, outside watching the children play....Anytime that I can steal, I stitch!
I actually get more accomplished by hand.

Happiness is an attitude. We either make ourselves miserable, or happy and strong. The amount of work is the same.
