I can spell "over commitment" but I still want to participate and make this quilt with the encouragement of other quilters. A little peer accountability is a good motivator.
I loved making my Sylvia sampler journey with others. For me, it was very inspirational and motivational. If I remember correctly, I started and finished two other quilts while making Sylvia. Some blocks are quick and some take longer like any sampler. I remember cutting blocks the night before and sitting and sewing them the next day. Went quickly.. I made 140 blocks in 4 months but this one I’ll likely take longer.
