Best line from a movie EVER. The movie "Up". The dog is talking and suddenly gets distracted - "squirrel!" That is me in a nutshell. I think I could accomplish so much more if I'd just be able to focus on one thing!

Guilty. I get excited when I see new ideas. Stay away from pinterest if you don't want/need ideas.

Who me? Never. (Ha). I am completing a baby quilt, working on an appliquéd quilt, dropped both to make umbrellas, and I'm finally finishing the second sock I started knitting in the winter. And then there's that counted cross stitch I started 27 years ago. Then I get into this site, see new ideas, and I'm off in another direction.

I like to go through the tools department in hardware stores to see what I can use for quilting! Have found some great tools and storage items.

Yes I do this all the time! That's why I have so much in my sewing room; oh wait, maybe I mean my dinning room. My sewing room is too full and the rest is around, on, and under the table in the dinning room. After the wedding this weekend, I will be free for the rest of the year and hoping that life doesn't get in the way of my projects.

Crochet was my first hobby but quilting is so much more fun. Still have an afgan in the works but it is so much slower than quilting.

I want to see the cute felt animals. What is the name of the book? I want to make some too!

I too jump form one craft to another when I see something I might like to try my hand at. You are not alone.
peace

The name of the book is "More Felt Friends from Japan" by Naomi Tabatha. My grandson decided I should make the finger puppets first - all of them, lol.
