    YES, YES, YES.... I just can not get in the mood to sew. I had to make myself go in my sewing room to make Candlequilters block for her quilts of valor, some things just have to be done. After that I feel like a slug. I keep trying to go in my sewing room to sew but alas to no avail. I will keep trying something will happen sooner or later I hope.

    raising hand in agreement here! :thumbup:
    I have a large queen quilt I need to finish quilting... just can't get into it. I have been doing a lot of gardening so I can't say I haven't been doing anything, but I need to get this quilt off the kitchen table for hubby's birthday dinner with the kids next Sunday.

    Since we talked last, I have done FM on my quilt, not thrilled with it, but not bad. I have cleaned out my attic. Amazing what a person can get done when they get off the pc.Stopped for a break and dishes are calling me now, then back to my FM.

    LOL :-D :-D I agree. Out WEST here, it ain't summer heat yet! Just hoping I will remember this cool spring weather when the heat does come.

    Lazy... no, I am pretty sure it is due to two reason:

    1. Too much time on the board... but, ah, a girl has gotta learn all there is

    And...

    2. I have sewing stuff from one end of our home to the other... not exactly always an inviting thing... if any of you know what I mean? LOL

    I quilt for business, so I spend most days working on other people's quilts on the longarm.

    I haven't sewn on my Pfaff in 5 weeks.in fact, I haven't even had my own sewing machine out of the travel trolley since I came home from quiltcamp on May 1.

    My spare time has been spent mostly digging and planting in the garden or on the terrace, reading. I'll get back to sewing, but this just isn't the right time for me.
