    I'm just realizing what's missing in my "new" sewing room. A clock! I admit to being a clock-watcher, although I wish I wasn't. There isn't a room in my house without at least one clock, and most rooms have two. If I didn't watch the clock, I'd be the last one to dinner, and I'm the only one who cooks :shock: Especially if I'm sewing, I lose track of the time. Surely, I'm not alone in this... am I? Or is it a phobia or something. :roll:

    I'm with you girl! I have clocks everywhere too. Once I'm into sewing I lose all track of time and get mad when I have to stop!

    O have a clock and I am amazed how time FLIES by.... I must be having a WONDERFUL time if it moves that fast. I am needing to get a battery for a timer ... I want to start stopping after an hour of sewing or quilting and go walk on the treadmill for a little exercise and to refresh the brain.

    Phew, okay, I'm feeling better about this. Not a phobia at all.

    I have four clocks in my sewing room. Every room in my house has at least one clock. The time on them may or may not be correct though. Some of them are a hassle to "spring forward and fall back" so I tend to leave them on one or the other.

    no clocks, no watch, I just sew till I want to stop!! Of course I can only do that on evenings after work or on weekends.

    Clocks everywhere. All set 5 - 7 minutes fast so I am never late!

    I also normally have calendars in just about every room, but not in the last two years. At least not store bought ones. I print out my own.
