from a Singer Sewing Machine Manual, 1948:

■Prepare yourself mentally for sewing. Think about what you are going to do... never approach sewing with a sigh or lackadaisically. Good results are difficult when indifference predominates.
■Never try to sew with a sink full of dirty dishes or beds unmade.
■When there are urgent housekeeping chores, do these first so your mind is free to enjoy your sewing...
■When you sew, make yourself as attractive as possible. Put on a clean dress.
■Have your hair in order, powder and lipstick put on...
■(If) you are constantly fearful that a visitor will drop in or your husband will come home and you will not look neatly put together, you will not enjoy your sewing as you should...

YES - this is how I do ALL of my sewing. OMG - so funny!
