Sometimes when we feel burned out it helps to take a break and do something really simple. I have a lone star wall hanging "hanging around" for a year waiting for me to finish and I am just not motivated right now. I have been doing redwork embroidery (not always red thread) which for me is really relaxing and fast. I am doing towels with embroidery on them for Christmas presents. So maybe after Christmas I will be up to finishing my long star quilt.
