A big welcome to a busy member...mhansen6! Yes, I too work- not 1, but 2 full time jobs <gasp>. So I too am in the same boat as you! However, this thread has helped me realign my priorities and get things done! Part of the battle is to know exactly what you're up against, or go over your 'inventory' of ufo's and make a list, knock them out in the order of least amount of work to finish....and the battle will be won! We are all on a 'fabric diet' of sorts as well. No buying new fabric! Exceptions are: fabric needed to complete ufo's...ie, backing, binding, etc. This is not a 'race', so work on your ufo's as you can. As for me with 2 full time jobs....I'm praying for more snow days without power outages.....I can get things done then! :-)
Blessings,
MaryAnna
FINISHED ONE! I finished the binding on the Quilt for Kids. Worked a little on the bow tucks, but now it is time to pay bills, do laundry, go to the grocery store and do all that stuff to get ready for the new work week starting tomorrow.
Thanks for the encouragement.
