Quilting Heidi Posted August 30, 2011 Report Share Posted August 30, 2011 OK Joan and I want to see how this works so I'm going to set up a poll. How many hours do you quilt on average a day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lindasewsit Posted August 30, 2011 Report Share Posted August 30, 2011 I voted... It really depends WHAT I'm working on... I voted the 5-6 hours, but sometimes it's the 2-4.. But when I really get into it, I can go on and on!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs.A Posted August 30, 2011 Report Share Posted August 30, 2011 Glad you figured this out, Heidi. And happy that you asked how much time we spend quilting vs. how much time we spend checking this forum each day! Personally, I don't want to confront THAT statistic!

IBQLTN2 Posted August 30, 2011 Report Share Posted August 30, 2011 pretty cool! I often intend to quilt for only an hour or so, but most times it sucks me into about 3 or four even after a long day, but it just is too much fun!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustSewSimple Posted August 30, 2011 Report Share Posted August 30, 2011 This is really a neat idea. I selected 1-2 hours because the rest of the time I am piecing or planning to piece or buying fabric or.........anything to avoid cleaning.

quiltedsunflower Posted August 30, 2011 Report Share Posted August 30, 2011 I voted, too. I like this. I'm envious of those who voted for 5-6 hours or more per day. That would be AWESOME!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LibbyG Posted August 30, 2011 Report Share Posted August 30, 2011 I voted, but I don't quilt everyday. So I'm going to keep track of my quilting and figure out the hours per day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Katydids Posted August 30, 2011 Report Share Posted August 30, 2011 I am envious of those that voted only 1-2!! Would love to have more time for my own piecing or whatever. Originally posted by quiltedsunflower I voted, too. I like this. I'm envious of those who voted for 5-6 hours or more per day. That would be AWESOME!!!

CrazyAboutQuilting Posted August 30, 2011 Report Share Posted August 30, 2011 Cool! I voted 1 - 2 because I work full time so my day job really gets in the way of my quilting time!!! Plus my garden is going nuts right now so that's another big interruption from quilting! But all the wonderful fresh veggies are worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quilting Heidi Posted August 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2011 Looks like 1 -2 hours is winning out by a thread. LOL I rarely get more than 2 hours a day to quilt because of my full-time job. On the weekends I can get in one good day of 6 - 8 hours and then the rest of the time I have to work on household stuff. I wish I had a maid and butler then I could just do what I wanted to do. In fact if I could afford a maid and butler I'd let them go and quit my day job! LOL One day I'll have time for my stuff again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeke Posted August 30, 2011 Report Share Posted August 30, 2011 I quilt bewteen 3 to 6 hours a day depending on what I'm working on. Other times I'm digitizing or playing with the dog or running around to clients houses to fix their machines. zeke...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anniquilter Posted August 30, 2011 Report Share Posted August 30, 2011 I voted too! This is really interesting. I said 2 - 4 hours - in hindsight probably a slight over estimate - oh well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeri Posted August 31, 2011 Report Share Posted August 31, 2011 I haven't voted cause I don't quilt daily, I don't have an answer. I used to quilt full time. Now: I have a full time job, my house is all mine and no one else to pitch in to do the chores. 3 grown daughters with 9 grandkids that take up alot of my time. Many days I run out of time to quilt, some weekends all I do is quilt (ie: last weekend maybe 12 hours per day) other weekends I'm on the go. Would love to do a couple hours a day but I run out of energy and have to stop. Like today, came home mowed the grass, fixed dinner, did some house chores, time to crash and bed by 9 morning comes early as I leave a few min after 6. Still have to get the trash out for early am pick up and should do some work on my Mom's estate (that's waiting for tomorrow) . Need a bunch more awake hours with energy in every day...

Borderline Quilter Posted August 31, 2011 Report Share Posted August 31, 2011 Don't be too envious of us people who can only quilt 1-2 hours per day....I would guess if we didn't have a day job plus an office job plus children, grandchildren, family, friends, horses, etc etc then we would love to quilt all day too...I know I would....I'm torn...lol...and then I'm too tired!
