I try to have a big project, one that I'm going to do really well for us or a gift and also some Linus or small quilt or scrap quilt, something to take me away from the big one to clear my head when it starts to bug me.

I start out with a plan. Goning to make a quilt to fit our queen size bed. Make four or five blocks. They are passing, for my standards. Not great but good enough. then I get bored with it and make them into a table runner or lap size quilt instaed of the queen size.

I feel like a failure even though they turn out fine because they aren't the size I originally intended. How can I maintain the focus needed to finish the size I wanted to begin with or atleast not look at them as failures?
