Tips:

• Even if you only have time to sew for 30 minutes, take the 30 minutes, or 10 or 15 minutes, whatever you can claim!
• Don’t get caught up on perfection. Everyone knows that done is better than perfect.
• I like to piece with a podcast in my ears. Measure Twice Cut Once is one that I’m enjoying lately!
