Wow. Lots of interesting responses. I sew for two outside groups, one is a missionary project for Uganda and another is a local group that does an annual craft boutique to raise funds for an organization. So, if I am not careful quilting for my own family and friends gets lost in the shuffle. My solution is to divide my time-I sew for one group on one day of the week and put it away and sew for the second one on another day and for my own use on a third day. What gets done is done and the rest has to wait until the next time. If I have extra time during the week, between other home care events and appointments I choose one to move on with. It seems to work for me.
