I put my unfinished projects I can't see under my bed in storage containers or places I can't see them - otherwise I wouldn't be able to think and like you, my creative energy is blocked. I actually put a box in the trunck of my car for a while. I finally donated everything I abandoned (even my learning projects unfinished because someone wanted them) and now am committeed to only using a certain amount of shelve space for fabric and projects and I am not buying one more thing until I have room on that shelf. Total spending freeze right now :-)

Good: I love all the stuff I've been making so far and the exploration that comes with each one.
Bad: I'm running out of storage space in my home...
Ugly: Can't open a cupboard without a project tumbling into my arms. It's seriously interfering with my concentration, not to mention with my flow of ideas to start even more new ones.... :lol: :cry:
Help...
So I donated a bunch of blocks to my quilting guild for a charity sew-in. It was a relief, but most of my projects are and will remain MINE!!!! :evil:
Now I've decided to finish 3 before I start even one more. If this feel good, then I may decide finish another 3 before I start another one. And so on, until I can breathe again. Someday.... Grumble.
Help...
(No thank you, I'm not giving them away. :-P But I'd love support, suggestions, stories about your project stack, pile or mountain... And thanks for reading. I feel a bit better already.)
