I was inspired to start an inventory of works in progress on my blog (no one reads it, so it's more like a creative journal, just for my personal enjoyment), but I would like to quote you at the top of my WIP page (Finished quilts are happy accidents that occasionally happen in my studio, not regular occurrences or obligations.), would that be okay?Sara en Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15933081635835722346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3816121512164080677.post-29475005089298865252018-01-19T21:59:12.018-05:002018-01-19T21:59:12.018-05:00You are a temptress, but I guess Esther started it...You are a temptress, but I guess Esther started it with her beautiful quilt.

You are SO good after my last post on not joining another QAL that I joined Esther's FB group to at least get the pattern for the first blocks!

I was feeling all good about myself thinking I would tackle ufo's and kits bought but never started that are hanging out taking up space in my sewing room. Now you provide me with the right justification to let it all go and what the heck, buy more fabric! AND, show me a BOM that I love to pieces. �� Enjoy the creative process; I'll be following.Barbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11332991785391135451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3816121512164080677.post-47000014807911768762018-01-16T12:37:21.911-05:002018-01-16T12:37:21.911-05:00What a WONDERFUL analogy!

That would need to be finished, but all the rest of them that I started just because I wanted to . . . I think they will probably eventually come around on the I-want-to-work-on-that-again list, and if they don't? Oh well! No harm done. That new project is gorgeous!

I am trying to not look at it, but I keep looking at it. I will be following your progress on it, and probably saving the patterns.....and probably starting it. It's all good, right?

Wait for him to whine about how boring it is. Then suggest he work on another quilt to break the boredom...I don't know.

Deadlines, goals, plans and schedules are for work. My quilting should be completely liberating. I will chase every squirrel I can. I have scribbled new project ideas, while I was in the middle of being distracted by a squirrel, while I was working on an ongoing project. And why not - this new thing that you are about to embark on is very attractive. She sure beckoned to me. Alas, I am outta her league. But, you go girl. Kudos to you. I will be watching this space closely.Preetihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15363550140143647850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3816121512164080677.post-64107426048572446982018-01-15T13:00:10.492-05:002018-01-15T13:00:10.492-05:00Thank you for visiting my blog and leaving a nice ...Thank you for visiting my blog and leaving a nice comment.

Just think of the thrill we get when starting a new project. Just like falling in love or flirting with your crush! Who wouldn't want to feel that feeling 24/7? So, off to start a new table topper....well, as soon as I finish the current afghan block I am knitting. Baby steps, I have to learn to be irresponsible with baby steps.

I like your reasoning though - we must do what we are happy doing in our quilting and if that means starting another top then start! one day you will pick up one of the older ones and want to finish it (or not)Karen - Quilts...etc.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07293429657903986492noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3816121512164080677.post-43615738408694633742018-01-15T08:00:51.561-05:002018-01-15T08:00:51.561-05:00I saw Esther's BOM and like it a lot.
