You aren't alone! Seems like that always happens to me after the holidays AND I have the week off between Christmas and New Years with plenty of time to quilt. So, this year I decided to plan a project for this time off of work - a quilt just for ME in my favorite color combo with stars in it (I love stars in quilts). I planned it in September before the mad holiday sewing rush started - transferred the pattern in to EQ7 and colored it with my colors (the EQ7 rendering is my avatar), got the fabrics, studied the pattern, planned the quilting, etc. Then I set it aside - but NOT out of sight; left it right where I could see it everyday. I really got myself excited to start this project, but made myself hold off until after Christmas. So, yesterday I started cutting and piecing. So far, so good - I'm really jazzed to keep going. Maybe making myself wait to do a really neat project helped me stay motivated this year.
