When that happens I think about poetry and how similiar it is to quilting and then I get an idea and just do it.

I think I have the same problem, especially now that I have a painful shoulder. Having arthroscopic surgery tomorrow so maybe that will help.

LOL when I get in this "Mood" I start writing things down and in detail that gets me going .. Sometimes I will just take a weekend off and do something else other than quilting, sewing or crafting !

I'm with you all!!! I have the stash & the patterns but just don't know what I want to do first. I pick a pattern I want to make & can't decide on the fabric or don't have quite enough! Or, I decide on the fabric & can't decide which pattern to make with it!! Now that I have just added the 20 yds I am worse.
help us all. Sometime something will hit me right in the face & I will know what I want to do! I hope! |
Well, I hope it is a big boat - I think you have more company onboard that you realize!!!
|
I know I am on that cruise ship!!!

Well, I feel like this sailor with my quilting. I have so many projects I want to make, so many patterns I have saved, so much fabric in my stash, that I can't decide which to do first, so in the end I do nothing and spend all my time on this board. How pathetic is that ? |
And I thought I was the only one that felt like this!!!!!

Right now I'm on the same ocean liner :!: I've got mug mats, microwave bowl holders, table runners, etc,etc to make for Christmas for family, and all I'm getting done is dithering around, can't decide on fabric, patterns, size, etc,etc.............
