Moan, groan, why did I ever say I'd do this?

Im so sorry to hear that. It would be enough to make me throw in the towel. A some point the only thing you can do is save yourself. I'm with Colleen on this one. Whatever it cost, it would be worth my sanity to hand it off.

I know the "want to swear" feeling and it struck me funny.
I would not be laughing if I were in your shoes though, for sure.
Your too nice...I know, bc most of the time, I'm too nice.
There are those that know how to wiggle out of doing something and
how to spot people that are "too nice"...be on the lookout for them

I know exactly how you feel. I enthusiastically volunteered to be on the raffle quilt committee and ended up being a one person committee. Others made some blocks, some were the right size, some were not. Good thing the blocks were planned in a way that they could be trimmed down. When the top was finished, I was very relieved and then when the guild asked for a volunteer to quilt no one volunteered. I have a long arm so guess who got to quilt it too? The pressure to get it right was intense. In the end the quilt was beautiful and everyone loved it and it brought in a lot of $$ for the guild. Still, I don't volunteer for anything anymore.
