You are probably a “creative process” person rather than a “completed project” person. These people, like me, often have more fun in the design, color pulling, piecing, and how-does-it-all-work-together process than we do in having the completed quilt.

I have UFOs nicely packed away that are over 25 years old. Some of these are nothing but a roll of the fabric pull for a quilt-to-be! Every once in a rare while, I come across a started one and get creative with it all over again by figuring how to enlarge it or add borders --- now that the fabric for it is mostly unavailable.

But long ago I was told that even though Michelangelo, and Beethoven, and other great artists, left work undone, no one denies *their* genius. It’s been my greatest guilt release ever.

Gotta leave *some* inheritance to the kids!
