I made a new stocking for everyone Nov 2011 except one of my three daughters. That was 6 sox in all. I just can't get myself to make her stocking. A yr has past and I am still stalling. I did the unthinkable and bought her a new stocking at JoAnn Fabrics in 2011 and promised her stocking would get done. Why? I have no idea or a good reason why. I made her a Halloween and a Christmas wall hanging this yr and again put the fabric aside when it comes to that stocking. Do I need a Quilting Shrink? Who knows!

It's so hard sometimes. I pushed myself to get a second quilt done by the end of January (which, as I type this is two hours fifteen minutes away)and I cut and prepared the binding today which sounds like I was close. But the more I look at the unbound quilt, the more I think that the top isn't pulled tight enough; meaning that I will have to unpick all the quilting on a (small) twin bed quilt. I'm trying to convince my self that it will be okay as it is but I'm not convinced, so just hours from finishing, I stalled! I'm going to take it to class with me on Monday and see what my teacher thinks before I start ripping out all those thousands of stitches!<br /><br />Anyway, relax, your life doesn't depend on your quilting!Lynnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07760744006915967397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3517912312104218960.post-15488580905278281672013-01-30T18:39:34.699-08:002013-01-30T18:39:34.699-08:00Deb, I feel you on getting stressed about projects...Deb, I feel you on getting stressed about projects and getting things done. I promised myself this year that I was not going to do that, but simply enjoy the process. No deadlines, no stress, just enjoying jumping from project to project whether it's done or not. I am happy to say that it's making the month so much more enjoyable.<br /><br />:)Maribeth @ Simply Delightinghttp://www.simplydelighting.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3517912312104218960.post-26856524375359813162013-01-30T16:55:40.025-08:002013-01-30T16:55:40.025-08:00You have some great projects here!

Very nice! When you enter "blog-land" it's hard not to get caught up in the "finishes" that seem to be everywhere. You're right.....relax and enjoy this wonderful hobby/art called "quilting"....hugs, DoreenAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3517912312104218960.post-47823271556462692922013-01-30T13:52:02.018-08:002013-01-30T13:52:02.018-08:00Yes, yes!
