When you hand quilt, what are you thinking in your deep thought
#72
I don't watch TV. I generally like it quiet when I quilt. If DH is home he has the radio on to a classic rock station, and some of the songs "take me back". I mostly just zone out on my stitching.

I also use the time to pray, especially for my family, but also for the quilt recipient. And because I sometimes handquilt late into the night, it's not uncommon for me to fall asleep midstitch and dream for a while. :lol:
