Sometimes my quilting has been a struggle...
just too many projects at various stages of completion
have given me a very overwhelmed feeling....
Can one have TOO many projects on a design wall? |
As I sit here watching a squirrel try and climb up my bird feeder
only to be stymied by the squirrel baffle ....
I feel his pain ....
"so close yet so far"
How does one combat this?
having always been a "squirrel" type person
this cartoon really captures me at this moment...
Trying to learn to rein in the feeling of
"the next shiny object (or project)"!
FOCUS!!
that my word for 2019
Focus! Focus! Focus!
Set a goal and focus!
My old Mary Kay training days are creeping back into my brain!
Having become a sales director winning two cars,
diamond rings and other beautiful gifts during my M.K. days...
setting and achieving goals is not a new concept ...
just need to apply it to my quilting!
My guild has a show coming up in September and
as of a month ago I had not one entry ready...
(lots of starts - just no finishes!)
Set a Goal and Focus...
GOAL:
Finish at least three guild workshop sponsored project
and at last one piece to be judged...
FOCUS:
Having just added a few more markings ~
now ready to re-started quilting my
Flower Garden
So glad I made the decision to change out the batting!
The wool is making all the difference in the world!
FINISHES:
To date I have finished the guild's challenge project:
"Peek-A-Boo Zebra"
and TWO workshops projects
(with two more close behind!)
Modern Adventure |
Daisy Trio
The squirrel outside is still struggling to get at the bird feeder....
but the squirrels in my brain have retreated!
Now to go and focus on quilting my "Flower Garden"!
(and not look at any other project today!!)
Have a great Quilty Day and enjoy the process!
