often the problem is that it stopped being fun and became work - a super motivation killer! If you were concerned about doing machine quilting, that may have been your trigger. My suggestion is do something fun again. Maybe it is a small project ( a placemat), a seasonal item (a Christmas stocking), a simple baby blanket to donate or a table runner to give to the local senior center. These items are all small, they go together quickly and you could practice some straight line quilting without too much difficulty. While it isn't instant gratification, it is fairly quick gratification. With every pat on the back you give yourself, you will be encouraged to do something else. Just don't jump to a big project too soon. And please remember, no one else is going to notice the imperfections in your item, don't be hard on yourself!
