October Meeting - Laura Hartrich - 'How Do You Find the Time?'
We all have a finite amount of time in the day, and we all have various commitments and demands on that time. Social media can make us feel like everyone is finishing more quilts than we are. Don’t you ever wonder how they find the time? I do!
Laura will share how other quilters manage their sewing time, how they carve out moments, and how they think about time spent on their craft at various seasons of life. This will be a fun exploration of how others manage to make time for making, and will provide some realistic inspiration for how we can make the most of our precious time.
