Not enough. Disorganization is in the way but I'm working on getting rid of the 'Dis'.

As little or as much as I want to.

I'm retired so in my sewing room every day. It might be sewing, cutting out a new quilt, ironing scraps, folding fabric, etc.

I will say 5 hours a day. If I didn't spend time here I would probably add 2 more, but I also dream quilting - does that count? I do stop to walk Murphy, and cook breakfast and dinner and walk Murphy a night as well. Once in awhile I will break down and clean.

During weekdays, not so much, maybe half an hour a day? In the weekend, depending on my plans, a couple of hours. But then there are times when I don't quilt at all (too busy) and there are times where I quilt all day (vacation anyone?). So really, it all depends.

Since the begining of this year I haven't been able to do much sewing do to an injury to my sholder. It has healed and now can do quilting again but now I have to find a full time job and get back into the working world once again. Will have to do my quilting in the evenings and weekends once again.

I go in spurts. Sometimes I will be in the sewing room after I get home each day for 2 weeks. Then after I finish a quilt I take 1-2 weeks off, then start all over again.

Although I'm trying to get my Christmas presents started now. Here's hoping I get them done by Christmas!! :)

Usually I spend a couple hours per week but right now I'm spending roughly two hours per night. I'm excited to get this top going! I'm a homemaker so my schedule is flexible enough that I can do this... I am so blessed!
