Once you taste it, you will love finishing projects!
Oh, I agree...that feeling of completion is soooo wonderful.
Perhaps if you determine who you want that quilt to go to, or set a date that you want to complete it by, like a birthday or Thanksgiving, etc. it will motivate you to complete one.

The only time I have a hard time completing a quilt is when it starts to go wacky or I end up not liking the colors. Then that person is out of luck. They will probably have to wait until next year when I haven't touched it for a few months and feel refreshed enough to do something with it. :-D

Good luck...what should we call that feeling?
