What makes you procrastinate?

I am at the same place you are with some of my quilt tops. I want them quilted but keep putting it off.

Design problems mostly. Since I usually wind up making so many changes in the design of a quilt from the standard pattern - I only do QAYG. So a lot of patterns have to be juryrigged to accept this style. I like to walk until I get an AHA moment.
I think better on my feet. I've always walked, even in college design classes. Weather has been too nasty to walk.

I don't procrastinate very often. I'm more of a get 'er done & out of my way kind of girl. I did however find myself procrastinating badly when faced with quilt blocks I really didn't like. It repelled me worse than bug balm! I did manage to complete the top though & am trying to finish it.

FOF here. I procrastinate when there's something that has the possibility of not coming out just right - like binding the pointed ends of a Spicy Spiral table runner. I can do it, I have done it, but there's always the 'what if' factor. Another place is choosing a more difficult pattern. If I can set in a sleeve, I can do a Drunkard's path, but I'm still dragging my feet.

Me too! I feel like I work so hard to make a quilt and then I'll ruin it if I don't do the right quilting design. So I let it sit on my table, all pinned together, and think about it for a while. It always helps to get others opinions before I start.
