Sometimes I get inspired by watching quilting videos or reading/looking through quilting books and magazines or Pinterest pictures. You might get going again by looking at pictures here on the Board. I know the feeling and hope you get back in gear really soon.

Christmas morning is going to be a little embarrassing if you have to give him a half done quilt, and say "finish it yourself." That is why we do what we do when we do. I believe in you, you can do it! Now go pour some wine and sit at the machine, and figure out what you can do next, even if it is prep work as someone suggested. He will be thrilled and you will be so proud of your self. Go for it!

I find that it is hard for me to get "into" a quilting project if other areas in my life seem out of kilter. Even if the project is well launched and I have really enjoyed working on it. So, I try to figure out exactly what it is that is keeping me from being "in the moment" and enjoying the process. Once I have it figured out and have come up with a plan, executed or not, I seem to be able to exhale and get the job done.

A good night's sleep helps too!

Boy, I really sound like a new age guru or something. But, that is what works for me!
