I love all phases of the quilting process. My problem is I tend to go faster and faster when I'm right at the finish line. This might not sound like a big problem...but my bindings really suffer. One was so bad that I waited awhile (about a week) and then I replaced the binding. The second time around it was so perfect! I guess I learn something from that and hold off finishing until I'm well rested. Or maybe make the binding the "beginning of the end". Did that make sense? lol

none of those are as bad, however, as

you just need to rearrange your furniture.
my computer and sewing machine are positioned within a short roll of each other. i can zip back and forth between the two.

I'm afraid that it's a life long disease, no cure. I was infected as a child, my loving Grandmother infected me without knowing it. Poor thing, she never knew that it would never go away, that urge to fondle...fabrics and threads. The need to have more and more materials. The desperate need for "just one more color". I blame my Grandma for all of that.
