I have a LIST of quilts (purchased fabrics etc.) for them...I honestly have about 5 just waiting around to be cut/sewn etc.

However...today i was at walmart and in the fabric department and my eyes were drawn to this faux silk and beautiful earth tone colors...I looked right at it and thought WOW...that would make an awesome Zipper Quilt...

So that is now being moved to the head of the list and hopefully will start on that tomorrow LOL

Really, please tell me i am not the only one who does this.

I do it all the time! I have cubbyholes with planned quilt fabric in them but something grabs my attention or imagination and I'm buying somethinig new and making it. While all those planned ones sit there and wait, and wait.

I think you'd be in more trouble if you didn't do that.
Can you imagine being so rigid that once it was on your list you had to do it in the order it came up???? Not me. I've got fabric that I bought 5 years ago for a quilt I was going to rush home and make. It's still waiting.

What good is a list if you can't modify it...often! A list should NOT get in the way of the creative process.
