I get my sewing time in by sewing 10 minutes here, 15 minutes there, etc. Eventually all the projects get do completed on time.

If I have 20-30 minutes free I try to sit down and sew. You’d be amazed at how much you can get done in a short time. You have to stay organized and know you can do this projects with this much time and maybe another with another amount of time. I worked this way when my children were small and just continued over the years. Sewing is my refuge so sometimes I have to just make time.

I usually see late at night before I go to bed. That is the only way to get stuff done before Christmas for me. :0)

I get up early and enjoy crafting when everyone is sleeping!

I’ve had to schedule some time – otherwise, nothing gets done.

Sewing is a stress reliever for me so at night after a hard day or when I have a gift to make.

Since I have discovered sewing, I am baking less cookies! Better for my hips, too. 🙂
Happy Holidays everyone! -

I sew at night while watching television or in the quiet evening while the family sleeps.

Don’t have to squeeze time in any longer, no kids at home and my own sewing room, so I can now sew whenever I want. Such as pleasure on my 10 year old Bernina.

I set aside time every evening for sewing.

Late night and early mornings add an hour or so to my day. I just give up sleeping:)

Get up extra early 3AM and sew before I go to work!! Best time of the day

I find time before anyone gets up or after they retire. Having a plan is crucial.

I’m motivated to do my chores faster in order to be able to quilt. Spending time in my sewing room is my reward!

It’s not easy. I basically just assume I’m not going to sew until after Christmas.

After kids are in bed, listening to tv and having a glass of wine!

After everyone else goes to bed is my “ME” time. to sneak in some sewing.

Less baking means more time for sewing.

Luckily, I love to sew any time! I am a night-owl….and I don’t have to be at work real early! I sew every day! 😉

My husband is retired and I’m sort of retired. No kids at home, no responsibilities, except to ourselves, so I sew whenever I want, morning, noon or nighttime. Of course I do stop to make sure he’s fed on time. Love my Bernina 780 and can’t wait until the longarms come out!

I keep the machine set up and ready to go so I can sneak in time during quiet moments.
