Be my conscience ..... If you see me here, kick me off the Boards!

Background!
Eleven days ago my LAQ called that my Double Rose Trellis was ready to pickup.
I traded her for my Stained Glass (smaller than avatar, it's handquilted)
I have NOT anything with the DRT.
Today she called that SG is ready.
I picked it up.

I now have miles of binding to do!

And to think, I had my plan put together for this afternoon, to work on my OBW and make a purse this weekend ... I pledge, I am NOT going to do that.

Priority is to get these two totally finished ... and then maybe squeeze in the purse as I work on my OBW!!!

So, you have my permission to be my conscience and send me to my binding when you see me here! :) :thumbup:

I'm suppose to be packing boxes for our move right now. Needed a break, I've been missing everyone here on the board.

MamaBear61 05-07-2011 01:27 PM

Off you go, your binding awaits. The quicker you get them done the quicker you can start your new projects and more importantly see what is happening on the Quilt Board. (lol)

erstan947 05-07-2011 01:27 PM

OK, I see you are still on line....:) Turn off the computer and get the binding done:)

Lady Tapioca 05-07-2011 01:35 PM

It looks like you're still here..........!!

jaciqltznok 05-07-2011 01:40 PM

holy cow...are you STILL online...get OFF of that computer young lady and do your HOMEWORK....NOW!!!

mommamac 05-07-2011 01:41 PM

you're online - does that mean you are all done????

sewmuchmore 05-07-2011 02:14 PM

It is hard not to stay off the board but you have work to do, so get to it. :lol: :lol: I have so much to do myself, but I need to catch up here first. That my story and I am sticking to it. ;-) Good luck!

QuiltE 05-07-2011 02:17 PM

*giggles*

Yes ... I just had to check up what was happening online here!
Mission Accomplished!!

And while I was doing that ... I made a slight change in plans ... I have a deadline (that 4 letter word called WORK, the paying stuff) for Tuesday. IF (and that's a big IF) I knuckle down and get to it, I can get that stuff done tonight.

THEN ... I can check back in on the boards before bed.

THEN tmro/Sunday and Monday I can "gift" to myself and bind away, without any hesitations or fears that I won't make that Tuesday deadline!

New Plan acceptable, Conscience?

MamaBear61 05-07-2011 02:18 PM

Sounds like you have it all worked out :-)

Yea right!

I decided that was a better route ... and I could lower the stress!!
Not that there's a deadline on the binding ... just that I always get anxious to get the binding finished, so I can truly enjoy my quilts!!!!!!!!

And now ....... I am gone til later!
Promise!!!
(a pre-bed check in to see what's happening tonight!)

QuiltE 05-07-2011 06:35 PM

Dear Conscience,
I am pleased to report that I am almost done the deadline work ... a little tidying up on it tmro, when my brain is a little less foggy!

May I puhleeeeeeeeease check out the evening's happenings? :)

Thank you, your errant soul, QuiltE!!!
:)

PWinston 05-07-2011 06:50 PM

And, you are still online. GET OFF!!! GO BIND!!!!

Read above!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have things almost done that I can bind tmro and Monday with no guilty conscience of a looming deadline for Tuesday. What isn't done, will get done as a break in the midst of the binding.

My reward now, is to catch up on the Boards, before I am off to lala land and zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!

sherriequilts 05-07-2011 07:24 PM

Just love the way you worked it all out! I need to take lessons from you!

Bluelady 05-07-2011 07:25 PM

I see you are online! Shoo! Scat! go bind!

QuiltE 05-07-2011 08:12 PM

Ha!
Don't be too impressed .... my halo is a very tarnished one!! :)

Kathy9052 05-08-2011 03:54 AM

Maybe you can use the reward system. For every hour that you work on the binding, you get 15 minutes on the Board. Of course, you will have to use a timer to limit yourself to the 15 minutes. LOL!

Aurora 05-08-2011 04:16 AM

I am where I am supposed to be, doing what I love to do. Later I have a dog to bath and clip, but by mutual agreement we have decided to postpone it as long as possible.

Stitchit123 05-08-2011 04:27 AM

Sorry I can't help I'm suppose to be packing the car with my precious stuff and heading over to the new house to do some cleaning but my back hurts was up til 5am and back up at 8 So I don't think I can holler at you at least not while I'm sitting here :P

QuiltE 05-08-2011 05:32 AM

gypsylady5 05-08-2011 09:51 AM

I got my block swap blocks done today! Mission accomplishe. Now on to the next project. Must find a UFO and finish it! Happy Mother's Day everyone.

Sierra 05-08-2011 10:00 AM

I think I like the Board because it has so many idiots on it :>)

QuiltE 05-08-2011 12:11 PM

Dear Conscience .....
:lol:
The two quilts got their "trimming" and I had one achey-breaky back which was very tempting to say adios-amigos for the day. I plundered on and now have my back settled now a little after, getting the binding stitched on to both quilts.

Now onwards to the hand stitching!! And when the phone rang, I managed to almost get the binding finished on a pillow that's been waiting!

It's been a lovely day to sit and sew. Really too nice to be on the inside, so I let the outside in ... sliding door and windows have been open. Filtered sun coming thru the trees with the birds singing a chorus to me in the background! Only better setting would have been to take my machine outside!!

Think I'll toss something into the oven for supper, and let it brew while I stitch away. I'm hoping now, that there's some good programs on the tube, to keep me company while I stitch away!!!

Til later, your redeeming soul, QuiltE :!:

desertrose 05-08-2011 12:27 PM

HUM! still on line are you!!! Off you go the sooner you start the sooner you'll be showing us the finished project. :-D

Tough Love Stinks, but it's for your own good...LOL

:lol:
This has just been a study break and soon I will depart!!!!

QuiltE 05-08-2011 01:10 PM

And now my dears ...... tea is made, oven is on, and I'm off to sew sew sew! :wink:

Mornigstar 05-08-2011 02:32 PM

I have enjoyed this particular thread so much. Must be one of those idiots !!!
Have no paint stripper to work on sewing cabinet but planning a very special thread for everyone on this board --if I get sewing after 60 MINUTES tonight.

Show us the quilt if you ever get the binding done.
And I see you are online also.

Caught again!!!!!!! .... just did a wee little check in as I checked things in the oven.

Now that sounds exciting to be working on a sewing machine cabinet. I will only do that sort in the good weather and outside ... on my list this summer are two wall quilt racks, one floor folding quilt stand, and an antique spool bed foot/headboards. One will go on a bed and the other will be converted into a quilt rack! And a couple of barn window frames that will become mirrors .... or perhaps hold something quilt-y!

Now my dear Morningstar .... the intent is NOT to sew AFTER 60 Minutes, but DURING! I opted to not turn on the TV so far today ... and have only listened to the birds and outdoor sounds of the breeze in the trees. And now have thought it's time to close the door/windows and have some nice easy listening ♪♫♪♪ on! :)


And now ... I am off to the Binding Marathon ... til supper is ready! Tralalalalala!

Rude or Ignorant?? You pick!!

QuiltE 05-08-2011 07:57 PM

Yes, I'm online again ..... it's midnight here and I should be in bed, but just had to check in!! ;)

Pillow cover is completely done.
Large quilt is 3/4 bound.
So tmro/Monday the final 1/4 and the small quilt to do ... it seems SO small compare to the big one, and I purposely left it for that reason!

Off to check and see what's been going on all day! :)

rona thickpenny 05-08-2011 10:49 PM

Go girl binding awaits, think how happy you will be in a short while when it is completed .Positive thinking. get this out of the way your OBW awaits.
