I work, and have two kids- 6 and 4. I may get to quilt on Friday nite after kids go to bed.
I definitely want to be clsurz when I grow up!

Never enough time! I am a stay at home mom of 4. While I don't home school my two middle kids come home for lunch. I have a garden, I am trying to get crops in and can. We process our own meat too. Last week my husband got an elk so I spent all day for two days cutting meat so we could process at night. I always say, I just want to quilt! I allow myself to quilt most days during nap time. I get about one hour free time at that time.

Between taking care of hubby, Dr's appt's, and this board...who has time to quilt?!?! And forget the housework, not gonna happen!

This last week I spent about 3-4 hours quilting. Prior to that, it had been nearly 2 months since I had sat down and sewed. Prior to that, I was lucky to sew about 4-8 hours per month (had a standing Saturday sewing date with a GF.) In other words... nowhere near enough!! ;)

I take whatever time I can get between jobs. I do house cleaning on Fridays. Do the wash on the weekends and try to cook healthy meals everyday. I find that being away from my quilting make Momma a bit cranky. A cranky Momma is not a good thing!

Empty nester, BF truck driver, so 1-3 hours after work, depends on if he is in or out - if out all weekend then I sew till my eyes are crossed!

I do not have to go to the Library on Weds, so on that day I spend right much time cutting out pieces and designing quilts. The other days I stay busy with housework, helping husband with meds and doing chores. I do sew at night for awhile until I get tired, that way I keep mistakes to a miniumn.
