Like I was telling
Kelly &
Joan, I'm having a problem with left over UFO's. I think I have about 6 (no rolling of the eyes -please) UFO's and would like to get them completed. So, I am only making one commitment this month. It's to complete the Simplicity quilt. It was one of the first quilts I quilted on Bessie. There are several spots that need to be fixed - tension problems and it needs binding. If I happen to work on other items, so be it.
Sometimes one goal is all we need! I had one goal the past few days and would not allow myself to move on to other 'fun' projects until that was done. It worked!
ReplyDeleteI love that you are only committing to 1 project. Keep doing 1 UFO at a time and they will be finished before you know it!
ReplyDeleteby the way, I LOVE the MAKE LIFE fabric in your header :)
Wow, only 6? I have 6 per DRAWER. Sigh.
ReplyDeleteYour plan makes sense to me. It's a great feeling to finish something that has been languishing in the UFO pile! Please post a photo when you are done!
ReplyDelete...and the burden of this one will be lifted, right? This is how I feel at times. :-)
ReplyDeleteI am following your footsteps in terms of not putting too much on my plate at once. The feeling of getting a project completely done is so wonderful!
ReplyDeleteOh hunny, 6? That's it? I can always pass some of mine over!
ReplyDelete6????That's not bad! I think that I have about 3 but they are the same ones that I have been avoiding for MONTHS!
ReplyDeleteGood Luck! You can do it!
I have so many UFO's and projects waiting in my stash that I let my plate overflow - but I do love a challenge even if it's one I make for myself!
ReplyDeletePicking stitches isn't fun~ I hope you don't have to un-do many! :-/ Looking fwd to your photo! :-)
ReplyDeleteGood for you finishing off a UFO! You do have a small number of UFOs (compared to some of us, ask me how I know, LOL) so you could get them all done quickly and then have NONE! WOW! what a lovely thought that it..... Good luck!
ReplyDeleteGood for you! I have also decided not to stress myself out over my hobby, but to finish those UFO's that are bothering me- one per month- that should only take about 3-4 years!
ReplyDeleteSmart move! I may do the same next month. Can't wait to see it.
ReplyDeleteSo proud of you keeping those UFO's down! Wish I had your discipline. Can't wait to see your quilt -- love the new header, and that you posted that pretty profile pix!
ReplyDeleteI wish I had only 6.....I'm afraid to even count how many kits and tops I have waiting for me to visit with them again. They keep calling my name but I think I have tuned them out (kind of like tuning out my kids LOL)...Good luck getting your project done this month.I know you can do it!
ReplyDeleteI wish that I only had six too! I have far too many ufo's along with all those quilt kits and projects that I got the fabrics for but have yet to get started. I'm hoping that having a reorganized space gets me going once I get it done. That's a really pretty picture of you!
