Only time I was ever able to do anything was when DD was napping. I'd put her down and madly sew or crossstich for fourtyfive minutes to an hour until she woke up again. Made one baby quilt and one crossstitch birth sampler (not DD's, a niece's) in two years.

Only suggestions I have is what I do sometimes with DH--after dinner he does bath and bed and kitchen duty while I work downstairs. (I've made dinner, put away the dishes and loaded all the dishes I can into the washer--all he has to do is put the dinner dishes in and the food away.) I can get in two good hours worth of work before bedtime that way.

'S been a while since we've done that...need to get "back to work" in the evenings instead of...well...posting here, for instance.
