Quilting and Patchwork

Quilting Moms (and Grandmoms) Do Work

by Mary Emma Allen on October 26th, 2007

               Do you find family and friends wonder why you do all that quilting?  Also, if you do this as an at-home business, do they think you don’t really work?  They consider you available for errands, volunteering, taking care of other family members and pets so think you have all this free time that’s at their disposal.

Quilting moms (and grandmoms) do work.  Bridget Wright, at the new b5media blog, Biz Chicks Rule, addresses this topic, Really, Really, I DO Really Work!  I’ve also discussed, at Home Biz Notes, how work at home moms can feel and look professional.

Since more and more women (and men) are working from home nowadays, we don’t run into this mindset so much.  However, it’s still there to some extent. 

How have you handled this situation, when you’re torn between needing to meet a deadline with a quilting or fabric art project and requests on your time from friends and family ?
