ok I have been fighting with this for some time but then I got this ergant request for a couple of quilts needed for a family that lost their father. So I moved everything aside and jump on the quilts needed for the despaired family. Now I'm right back where I started. 5 blanket for one of my brothers, one for another brother and debating on trying to get 40 quilts for soldiers who are getting ready for the winter and I know they will be freezing once it gets cool.
This is my plan, there is no way I can honestly do the 40 quilts so I'm putting those off, will start the 5 blanket tomorrow and with some luck I might get the one done for my other brother. I'm still thinking I can do a few for the soldiers so I will make some extra blocks in between and try to get more fabrics for doing them. This way I feel good enough to keep sewing and still am hopeful I can get all of these done.
The best I can say is make a plan, then do your best to stick with it. That's the best you can do, and never stop sewing cause a day lost will never be regained.
