I've been working really hard at cleaning and organizing. I can't believe what I'm finding. So many things I've started and never finished. I have 6 kaleidascope block sets (of 12 blocks each) all cut and bagged and ready to be put together, 2 sets already put together into 12 blocks each waiting to be made into quilts, 2 sets of baby prints and minky squares waiting to become a baby quilt, a 'keep it simple' quilt already assembled and waiting to be bordered, and my list goes on. I'm not done going through the 'junk' room. Don't know what else to call it. I guess I'm getting ready for next year's UFO thread. And I found 3 quilts waiting for the binding. I tend to go in spurts and then 'file' into baggies and set aside for later. I guess it's later. I'm definitely ready for next year's UFO thread. :lol: :lol: :lol:

One of my big problems is this Board. I see all these wonderful, great ideas and I want to do them all. I buy the material, get them cut, then see another one I want to do, so I bag the last one and start on the next one. ARGGGGHHHHH - this is so addicting. I'm beginning to feel like a professional kit maker.

This month alone I have added 2 "10-minute block" quilts to the pile - all blocks made and ready for assembly, 1 "tube quilt" blocks made and ready for assembly, 10 pillowcases done except for the final turn and sew, 4 tea cozy's cut and pinned and ready to assemble, 6 pillowcases pinned in the "burrito" method ready to sew. And I have done a couple of 10-minute table runners to the point that I need to finish the ends. But to my credit I did finish the 3 Halloween ones on October 31. :thumbup:

It's like I get to the point that I know I can do it and then I'm off onto another project. I am definitely some type of "-holic" and I haven't figured out what it is. DO I NEED THERAPY ?????

OOHHHH - and I just got the directions for a paper-pieced Kimono quilt. Gotta do that one next. And I just started a "Triangle Tango" - got it all cut, the squares sewn and ready to be cut. Then it will be ready to assemble. And my daughter's king-size D9P blocks are done and ready for the design board.

But I do have 6 quilts at the LA'er. Then they will be into the pile for binding.

Does it never end? Do you all go through this too? Am I weird???
