Me too, me too!! All of the above! I have so many UFOs and WIPs. A quilt to hand quilt, two applique projects right now, a top without a border, 30+ tops to quilt, a baby quilt that needs binding, another one that needs a label, a project on my sewing machine, another in a case that I take to a sewing group on Mondays, a dozen purses and tote bags started, a knitted purse that needs a lining, quilted pillows that need backs and stuffed, a dozen scarves that need fringes... oh I could go on and on. And on. Oh yeah. That's me.

Got home earlier this evening and was sitting at my dinning room table and I looked up at my new curtain I made last week to use just to brighten things up for the summer. You guessed it. I had made them out of that same fabric and I had even purchased the fabric at our local wal mart. I did find out I have very high blood pressure and my thryoid is under working and they started me on new meds. Do you think I am safe to be around people or just losing it?
:lol: :lol: :lol: Like I said earlier, I feel more at home here all the time, like I'm reading my own experiences! :lol: :lol: :lol: |
Yup!! I'm a genius too!

When I am sewing on one quilt, I am THINKING about cutting out another...and sometimes just can't wait to get up and slice a few rows of that new fabric that's just waiting for the rotary cutter!!

I used to be like that and I wasn't getting quilts DONE. I too would go onto something else when I got to a point where I could see what it was actually going to look like.
For the last two years I have worked on finishing things before I start something else. I did pretty good and got 12 tops done last year and several of them quilted so far. I just keep telling myself that I can't start anything else until I finish what I'm working on. It can cause periods of not working on anything because I refuse to start something else but don't feel like working on the current one. I'm doing a lot better and I only have a couple of things going right now. |
I'm realizing more and more what a hopeless lot we are.......and I'm not complaining!!! :D lolol

Maybe, but I have to set aside the 7 or 10 things I'm working on to start another project so I don't have time to think about it right now. I think I'll sort my fabrics. Perhaps take some pictures of what I bought at Marshall Dry Goods. And there's all the garage sale quilting books to read. I just can't think about ADD right now. I need to get caught up on one of my BOM classes that I'm making two of each block in different fabrics. I've got to pack up to go to Strips & Scraps sew-in today. Perhaps I'll work on my Funky Neighborhood blocks......... ADD, I can't worry about that right now, too much to do.
