I have that problem too, even with a finishing date looming. For now I'm setting a number of blocks to complete each day. It might work with a set amount of time alotted each day for that project. My sympathies, and hope you find something that will work for you.

Now, I'm not as LOUD as some of these gals so I'm just giving you a gentle nudge>>>>>>>>>>toward that sewing area and a whispered "you can do it". :):)

I wish I could help but it sounds like your motivation and mine went out to party together.I even tried bribing myself -No Milky Way Dark til --well some how or other 2 are missing and I still haven't a clue for a new project :(

Can't get my leg up that high kick so here is a slap to the back of the head (like in NCIS I can't spell the guys name lol) A gentle one tho just to get your attention to get something done.
Like I should talk I have things waiting for me to do but I started a huge project in my house that will tie me up for a week or so.

Quiltingmr,
That's what I was thinking........hmmmmm. I've never made a table runner, but did get a pattern on sale for. 99 cents at Joann Fabrics a while back. I just got some pretty Christmas fabric today so maybe that will motivate me :) I think I may have seen one too on the board posted. So I have a deadline then. I have to finish a bag for my daughter which I had wanted done weeks ago and then I will start one!!! Hmmmmmm.....hold me to it!

I do have health issues, but somehow someway I need to get busy. errrrrr I did cut out a bag to make for my daughter, but I really really need to get cutting out a quilt. That's it.....that's my vent session for the day. ehehehe I love this quilting board. Everyone seems so nice :)
