My problem is quilter's panic when I feel my quilting is out of control!!
I spent an entire day cleaning up my mess - yuck. I bought a big canvas bag at a yard sale and dump all my scraps into that. Then I sorted out my unfinished projects and hung them on hangers with their backing (feeling more in control already) and then prioritized them. Number 1 came out and the others are waiting politely for their turn.
I bought an audio CD/DVD player (on EBay) and love to listen to books on tape while I quilt. I ONLY get to listen while I work so it is a powerful motivator. I'm just getting started on "The Charm School" bu Nelson Deville. I did buy some new fabrics but I'm not allowed to touch them until I finish at least 3 of the 6 projects that are hanging over me like a cloud.
Looking at quilt magazines is always a motivator (I had to put mine away for now) and so is looking at quilt designs on line. I try to watch one tutorial a day just to get new ideas. I love jenny from Missouri Star Quilt. I want to be her when I grow up.
