I too have learned, at last, that what I call micro-moves gets me sewing (doing anything I love but have a hard time sitting down to do), and nourishes me daily , plus the deep satisfaction of a finished product. Thank you for reminding me - I always need reminders!

This is also a good tip for doing some household task (cleaning out closet, garage, etc.) by setting a timer for "X" amount of time. When the timer goes off, walk away until the next day. It is amazing how much can be done in just a few minutes each day.

Yes, my DD does yard work for 15 minutes a day and says it's amazing what she can accomplish, too.

ditto! i have Nancy Zieman's book 10-20-30 Minutes to Sew, which is the same philosophy, and breaks down all the steps in an easily consumable way. Just yesterday, I sewed one seam on a blouse and pressed... tonight I'll insert sleeves... and I'm expecting to finish the blouse this weekend!

This is a wonderful idea, I can not wait for the day that I get my sewing room. Until then I am nomadic in my sewing and constantly have to set up and break down :( Can't wait to be able to try it.

QUOTE: I am so thrilled to be sewing at all so I don't mind putting in that dreaded zipper since that's all I have time to do or I can break it down into two sessions.END OF QUOTE ---I could not agree with you more.

Even if you have very little time, it is satisfying to do something that STAYS DONE!
