Me too! This is for pleasure and if it isn't pleasant I don't do it. I am not quilting for money. I am not quilting for someone else. I make a quilt I am interested in and then I find someone who would like to have it. The only time I feel the least bit pressure is when I am almost at the end of the quilting then I pushed to get it done. I may have a couple of projects going at the same time but it is nothing I have to finish on a deadline. I am retired and retirement to me means relaxing and enjoying this time as much as possible. I still have other deadlines to meet but not like when I worked.
