It is hard for me to sew at night sometimes too. Maybe you can stuff earplugs in Mr. P's ears when you get up at 5 a.m. so you can sew without disturbing him? Of course, cutting and ironing don't make much noise unless you injure yourself doing them.AnnieOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06619125197850685345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3678998574963856841.post-36929556387392198102011-09-21T14:15:02.475+09:302011-09-21T14:15:02.475+09:30nice week ..

I never really do 'only a little bit' of sewing because it take so long to get set up and going... the problem with not having a dedicated sewing space I suppose. But I quite happily sew until 3 or 4 in the morning. My house is full of solid sleepers, not that you can really even hear the machine over the snoring.<br /><br />I have quite a lot of selvedge, and I cut them quite wide too, but they're usually not very long, since I tend toward smaller cuts of fabric. With summer on it's way I'll probably be churning out another heap of stubby holders with them but I'll keep an eye out for any longer bits for you.Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11266313274046316499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3678998574963856841.post-32575618721896007692011-09-21T12:36:18.129+09:302011-09-21T12:36:18.129+09:30I wish they sold a silencer for sewing machines!

I usually get up between 4 and 4:30am to sew. I am my very best in the morning. By the time I get home the best I can manage is the occasional bit of hand sewing. I am amazed at how much you get done especially given the time constraints!Three Birds Inspiredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10462935193167668508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3678998574963856841.post-1802548650983576992011-09-21T08:50:26.000+09:302011-09-21T08:50:26.000+09:30I'm like Jennifer, I cut the barest minimum fr...I'm like Jennifer, I cut the barest minimum from my selvedge, but if you need some I will try to cut them wider just for you. :-))Canadian Abroadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13358781396739230934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3678998574963856841.post-8288834320608657632011-09-21T08:44:20.717+09:302011-09-21T08:44:20.717+09:30Dear obsessed quilting friend - I just love you!Dear obsessed quilting friend - I just love you!Brendahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11123520405709193418noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3678998574963856841.post-67632579689918546122011-09-21T07:58:19.333+09:302011-09-21T07:58:19.333+09:30Wow!
