So after reading this blog I am going to let them know I am retiring from quilting fro others so I can finish all my UFOs and will let them know if and when I sew for the public again.
I have "friends" who come in and see quilts and say, I want this, etc. And of course family, but now everyone, and I mean everyone in my family has a quilt by me.
I am going to learn to say NO or ignore any hints for a quilt for now.
Hopefully, I can do it. My DH said I am always tired from quilting all day and he actually applauded when I told him I decided to quit quilting for the public.
Thank you everyone for the comments. I am not alone out here. Yeah......Going to work on my batik blocks right now.
