    Stop posting pictures of all your beautiful quilts! I look at each one and think how much I want to use the same pattern and then I get depressed because you are all so much more prolific than me.

    Next thing I know, I have wasted an hour or two of valuable sewing time on my computer and then I am even more depressed.

    I can't seem to discipline myself to stay away. I may never finish another thing! :|

    I know the feeling, I have not made one stitch today. Just keep looking at the board.

    I love everyone's quilts no matter how new a quilter. This is a very talented and supportive group. We all have something to offer and share, just go for it. Don't get depressed, just start sewing. I was in a funk for a couple of months, then got a couple of things done this week end and off and running again.

    I'm not judging myself at all. It was a tongue in cheek post. I love seeing all the pictures but it is seriously cutting into my sewing time. :lol:
