I've only been quilting a couple years, and I used to let unfinished projects stress me out. Then I realized...I'm doing this for pleasure, it's not a job! My career was very stressful. Now that I'm retired, I won't let anything stress me out like that again (shortens your life). I'm taking my time, and enjoying every minute. Not to say you aren't enjoying every minute of your manic quilting!!! Have fun :)
